  • Interesting stories but the background music is distracting

    I find it difficult to concentrate on what they are saying with the background music.

    The uptalk + vocal fry-adjacent narrator was so incredibly grating I couldn’t even make myself finish the episode!

  • Thank you

    StoryWorth has changed my life. I have had so many stories in my heart, and no confidence to write him. I now am a pretty good writer thanks to StoryWorth. I love the program and I have turned many people onto it. Now a podcast? How exciting

  • All of the podcast.

    Thank you for asking ordinary people to tell their stories. We all have a story to tell. I thank you so much for starting this podcast.

    My daughter bought me a subscription and I’ve written many stories. I wish one would be of interest to others. I have to publish my book soon. Maybe I’ll share a story. But in the meantime please, please keep on sharing these podcasts. I love how you infuse life, music, and drama in them. May God Bless
