CwS - Amy Douglas - Part One

Amy Douglas and I met on-line during the COVID pandemic, and then I went to visit her on a recent trip to the UK. We got on really well, and I felt that people out there, really need to hear her voice and know more about her. Amy Douglas was introduced to storytelling at a very young age. She was telling stories to strangers by the time she was 14, and after college and a career in colour polymer moved to her true passion of storytelling. Amy was part of the initial team who started Festival at the Edge in Shropshire, has worked in radio, and met some incredible people who she has worked with and mentored under. Amy did not realise that her family has deep roots in the traveler tradition and discovered this after working with traveler storyteller Duncan Williamson. We get into Amy’s work in the traveler traditions and mythic work in part two. Amy’s website is: https://amydouglas.com/ And her own podcast called, Taking the Tradition On can be found here: https://takingthetraditionon.libsyn.com/ and here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpcvx1G7TUAbeZU80cJJX8g where there are a few more episodes!
