I'm so sorry you missed Beth Horner's story about Silver Spurs. It was riveting and ever so poignant. Blake and I both had tears streaming down our cheeks! I spoke to her and she told me that is just the first part of a 3-part program she does. The 2nd part is about a Vietnam soldier (I think) and the 3rd part is about a female soldier in Iraq. I'd love to hear the rest but not sure I could take it. She's my new favorite teller! A wonderful mix of humor, pathos and warmth. One of the best things about a smaller festival like this is that the tellers are so accessible. All the MCs did a wonderful job but I was especially impressed with Kim Weitkamp who had such creative ways of introducing the tellers. We left after Sat. afternoon tellers but what we heard was a wonderful storytelling experience. Can't wait 'til next year!! <br /><br />Susan ClarkSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10577833506290736504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3821022301085928493.post-84681605539727483882010-04-20T09:12:20.194-04:002010-04-20T09:12:20.194-04:00I told my story The Mustard Seed.

BUT you know I am a Dorcus fan. I would drive a long way to hear more of your Dorcus stories. Love the woman...she creeps me out. I love it.!!Meh.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06263700170449616340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3821022301085928493.post-30693662583402975082010-04-19T21:18:10.505-04:002010-04-19T21:18:10.505-04:00I'm delighted to learn that you had a full hou...I'm delighted to learn that you had a full house for your part of the festivities. <br /><br />Great review. Except ... what did YOU tell?<br /><br />I heard briefly from Norris, who told me you were brilliant. No surprise there.
