So,I'llstartwiththis:
acoupleyearsago,aneventplannercalledme becauseIwasgoingtodoaspeakingevent. Andshecalled,andshesaid, "I'mreallystrugglingwithhow towriteaboutyouonthelittleflier." AndIthought,"Well,what'sthestruggle?
" Andshesaid,"Well,Isawyouspeak, andI'mgoingtocallyouaresearcher,Ithink, butI'mafraidifIcallyouaresearcher,noonewillcome, becausethey'llthinkyou'reboringandirrelevant." (Laughter)AndIwaslike,"Okay." Andshesaid,"ButthethingIlikedaboutyourtalk isyou'reastoryteller. SoIthinkwhatI'lldoisjustcallyouastoryteller." Andofcourse,theacademic,insecurepartofme waslike,"You'regoingtocallmeawhat?
" Andshesaid,"I'mgoingtocallyouastoryteller." AndIwaslike,"Whynotmagicpixie?
