To me storytelling can either be fiction or nonfiction. It can mean a story that actually happened and is told because it was funny, memorable, etc. It can also mean a made up story you tell to little kids, your friends, family, etc. Growing up most of the stories told in my family were stories of stuff that had actually happened. Now that I’m working at a daycare, most of the stories I hear are made up and their purpose is to entertain the kids. Fiction storytelling is a time that you can use your imagination and sort of go to another time and place. You can basically have anything you want happen in your story even if it’s not possible in real life.
