Telling stories from The Ice Cream Vendor's Song

I have a little something different to share today: a video clip!

Last Monday I was one of several Sonoma County authors invited to share our work at Gaia's Garden in Santa Rosa. I decided to tell two stories instead of read them. Ideally, with storytelling, the text is a guide, but you tell the story by heart, not through memorization, leaving room for the story to unfold in new ways during the telling. The stories didn't deviate too much from the original text at this event, but if I continue to tell them, they will evolve in subtle ways with each telling.

Here's the link: http://youtu.be/9K9ZM-0_DTw. I will welcome your feedback!
