What Is a Story Teller?

i've started to adopt a term for what i do that other people use. There's this real dearth of professional story tellers, which is why you have these movies coming out that are 19 seventis cartoons turned into a feature length film. Iada grand was a great story teller. This opens up the door the new media and everything in it with no gate keepers. You know, we've gone away from the whole idea that someone can prevent you from telling your stories or that you somehow have to please them before they let you see if an audience likes what you do.
