A story is an account of events in the past, it is
history.
Storytelling is when someone recites a part of history.
A Storyteller is someone who tells a story well. However, the story may become embellished, or certain events accentuated, or be told overly dramatic or the story may become changed completely. But this is what makes storytelling so exciting.Storytelling is deeply human; we all want to share our stories. Many artists are inspired by storytelling. The subjects for stories come from mythology, religion, autobiography, literature, fantasy, history and more.
