@josiah I’m basically asking how to craft good stories to tell aloud to others.

@toklaham-veruzia That partially answered my question on what makes spoken stories different, but I’m still not sure how to write them.

Let me try to explain what I’m thinking better. Sometimes when I read books there will be a character who tells another character a story. And often there is something very unique about those stories. Of course they play an important part in the plot and theme of the book, and that certainly helps with their appeal. But when I try to write out a story to be spoken by a character it doesn’t work.

So what I’m asking is how to write a story that is being spoken by a character, or that I could tell to others.
