Stories I Live By

University of Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada

In this work, narrative provides the framework and storytelling, the act. Storytelling is woven through the narrative presentation of story making as meaning making. It is an attempt to show rather than to tell what stories do. It entwines the ontological and epistemological position of narrative with the demonstrative use of storytelling to exemplify the primacy of narrative in meaning making. Narrative and storytelling work together to create meaning and metameaning through story and projection. Come, listen to some stories.

Key Words: storytelling • story • narrative
