From 1001 Nights to 2001 Story Resources: Stor e Telling 2013

Queen Scheherazade 

By Sophie Anderson, 19^th Century

The tale of the Persian beauty Scheherazade is one all storytellers are familiar with, a woman who saved her own life by sharing 1000 stories by the end of 1001 nights. In 2003 I highlighted a website offering these tales in my column for Storytelling Magazine, and since then I have reviewed well over 2001 storytelling and educational websites, as well as individual folktales, fairy tales, myths and legends.

This year I posted all of my columns from 2013. I have listed them all below so they will be easier to locate. I have also begun rechecking all of the links in my columns from 2002-2006 and recently posted the very first article from January/February 2002 here: http://www.karenchace.blogspot.com/2014/06/stor-e-telling-january-february-2002.html. I invite you to return often for more resources as I continue to share my work.

Please let me if you find this useful in your work; thank you for stopping by!

Below are the sites I offered for the April/May 2013 issue. There are sites to complement the state of Virginia, location for the National Storytelling Conference in 2013, as well as sites to celebrate Thread the Needle Day, Adopt a Cat Month, Canada Day, Cow Appreciation and Yellow Pig Day, and two previous blogs to help you slide into summer! So much to celebrate and so little time!

October/November/December 2013
October is apple picking time in the USA so there is a basketful of apple tales and of course, resources for Halloween. In addition, November is National Novel Writing Month so there are sites with information to help you travel the publishing road, along with stories to celebrate Thanksgiving and Christmas. I hope you find something to add to your repertoire.
