There is no cost to attend. However, we will be compensating the tellers for their efforts, and donations (suggested: $10 to $15 or more - Thank You!) will be accepted for this purpose. Whatever is donated before the event will be shared equally by that month's sellers.

These are being recorded and posted on SAC's YouTube Channel, so you can still watch the show if you can't attend the live event. Donations desired to be made after the event can be processed through the SAC Home Page PayPal Donation Button, or just Click Here.

If you are a Storyteller interested in telling on an upcoming Genre Stories monthly event, please contact your Storytelling Group. If your group would like to nominate a teller for any of the upcoming monthly events, please have your group’s representative contact Ed Lewis at ed-lewis@sbcglobal.net

The deadline for being considered to tell is 10 days prior to the event. The information required from all prospective tellers is: Teller's Name, Teller's email, Story Title, a short 2 or 3 sequence biography, the name of their Swap Group, and the email of their Swap Group's lead contact person.

All tellers must be SAC members. If you are not currently a SAC member please join us! Single memberships are only $30 per year, and there are multiple membership options as well. Please visit www.StorySAC.org to join our fun and active group!

We are looking forward to hearing all the talented storytellers from our amazing Story Swap Groups. And we're looking forward to seeing you there!
