Storytelling Guidelines
Long Story Short is a warm, supportive, community space for all storytellers and story lovers.
Long Story Short is open to any and all genres of story but we ask that kindness and common sense prevail - misogynist, racist and homophobic stories hurt people: we exist to build community spirit.
Personal stories should be worked through and not raw.
Stories should be no more than ten minutes in length and told orally, without notes.
