BONUS STORYTELLING EPISODE: The Floating Kingdom: A Fabulous Story for Our Times.

Mica Sun Reflections

This episode of Mica Sun Reflections features an Imbolc 2019 live telling of the original fable "The Floating Kingdom", which I'm in third-draft phase of editing as of this (Sept. 2019) moment.

It features an aging King, a Mouse, and the Firebird-Phoenix, and is set in a period of forgetfulness, empire, and ecological and social ills much like our own. (~and yet different.~)

The germ of "The Floating Kingdom" was birthed during a 2-part, all-day storytelling workshop facilitated by Eric Wolf, aka Brother Wolf, at Earthaven Ecovillage in Black Mountain, NC. (Brother Wolf himself produced a phenomenal podcast of in-depth interviews with over 100 storytellers: "The Art of Storytelling With Brother Wolf" (still available online).

The brief intro in this live set reminisces about a separate story, "Scheherezade's Patriarch", which I penned a couple years ago as a part of a wider intended performance at an arts and culture festival in C. A. with my creative friend Nat Allister of Fox and Beggar Theater. (Nat is rumored to be hatching his next offering even as we speak.)
