I will be adding the columns from
2007 – 2012 to that page as well, but I am in the process of checking what link
URL's have changed or are now defunct. It is a time consuming process so I
am taking the “slow and steady” approach via Aesop and will post
the individual columns on my blog for now.
If you interested you may want to subscribe to the blog so you will receive them as soon as they are up. I will not be adding current columns until the following year, so if you want immediate access to the newest websites, consider becoming a member of the National Storytelling Network.
