I have decades of experience with improv storytelling. It's a niche thing, and normally I use it for tabletop games, but in a pinch I can make up campfire stories, ghost stories, or whatever else and use the slightest cues from the audience to suit what they enjoy.

Shit. It works better in person because of facial expressions, body language, and other ways that help me come up with material as I go sweat but try me, I suppose.

That's cool, I love telling stories too. Some people here do it professionally, and they use their audience to give the tales a nice theatrical vibe.
