Exploring storytelling and narrative to become a better person
Geoff Mead is a storyteller, writer and consultant. He tells traditional stories, runs story-based workshops and teaches storytelling at venues in the UK and as far afield as Spain, Canada and Japan. He divides his time between his partner's house in the Cotswolds and Lyme Regis where he lives and writes in sight of the sea.
The power of Coming Home to Story lies in Mead's passion and
adventure, his faith in stories and storytelling as a source of
creativity, healing and sustenance.
*Bristol Review of Books*
If you didn't believe before that the storyteller can be both
healer and magician, you could hardy not believe it after reading
this book. I feel the better, and the wiser, for having read this
inspiring text.
