Welcome to the Sanctuary

Learn More About Storytelling I have tried to provide you with some interesting links to sites that have similar, or related, subject matter. This page, like everything on the web, is continually being revised and updated.  With that in mind, we'd like to invite you to check back periodically to see what's been added since your last visit.  If you have suggestions for additions, or would like to have your site linked here, send me an email.

Grimm's Fairy Tales - now this is, without doubt, the most unnattractive Web page you're ever going to come across (their description, not mine!), mainly because it's actually a Gopher directory - one of those point-and-click Internet sites that were around long before the Web. This one, at ftp.std.com, hosts about a hundred classic fairy tales, many of which will reveal to the astute observer the origins of no few urban legends and modern myths.

A wonderful folklore resource that also includes an excerpt from the fascinating novel, "A Mayan Life: A Birth in the Village" - the first novel ever by a Mayan writer.

Explore the stories, superstitions, proverbs and jokes here.

Click on the banner at the top of the wall to add your own graffiti, or just sit back and watch others paint.
