A note from Odds Bodkins, Sharing the Fire Keynote speaker

Hello, fellow storytellers,

I’m looking forward to my keynote at Sharing the Fire and to heading out of isolation in New Hampshire to mingle.  Just tell me there’s no snow in Rhode Island.  I just snowblew another six inches on top of what must be fifteen storms’ worth up here.  The end of my driveway looks like a closing heart valve.

Anyway, Healing the World One Story at a Time couldn’t be a better topic for a keynote, at least for me, since I’ve just published online a project years in the making, one that attempts to heal with a story.  I guess you could say it works to heal the wounded empathy of young Americans.  Big item, I know.  Still, I think I have a good story for it with a workable approach and I’m looking forward to sharing it with you.  Plus I’ll play some Celtic harp and 12-string for your enjoyment during the keynote and try to fit our craft into the context of revolutions, from the ongoing digital one to those in the Middle East, as well as into the context of human evolution, highlighting the timeless touch of the spoken word.

See you there.

Odds

PS: check out my new YouTube video, just up, about the empathy project. A
