This is just fantastic (not really the word I wanted, but it's early in the morning)!! Six stories from a group of the Best Mudcat Storytellers already -- I can't tell you all how much fun this is (and hopefully, will be). Thank you, merci, go raibh maith agat, danke, gracias and cracebo!!!The latest additions to the Mudcat Storytellers' Page are:
The Emily Beal by Kendall
The Story of Bram Hanson by Lonesome EJ
Coyote and the Bear by Lonesome EJ
We're off to a great start, so keep 'em comin'!

(P.S. dearmehitabel - I wanted to keep the 'feel' of the page as close to a 'telling tales beside the fire/at the kitchen table' state as I could, and that's why I used the 'as told by' style of a byline. I do see your point though, so I've changed the byline style to 'from the telling of'. I hope that will do business for you. Don't forget that your copyright notice is at the bottom of each story page, and the index page does say 'original stories and folktales'. I really want the reader(s) to feel like another 'Catter is telling them the story, instead of reading something out of a book. Hugs & snogs, archie)
