It's a full moon, and time for the Orkneyology Podcast!Among our folkloric musings tonight, we pose the burning question: "Are you a bookworm or a bookdragon?" Listen on the website: orkneyology.com/orkneyology-po… Youtube: youtu.be/n8muFpEyHLE or Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/0CuYpxinh…
Here I am doing some storytelling yesterday - a local Spring Concert at St Magnus Kirk, Birsay!
This Saturday - we are having a storytelling event at a local museum! Suitable for all the family, entry by donation 🥰
Tonight sees the second of our two ‘minifest’ events! Join us in the Old School, Quoyloo, for a relaxed Open Mic - tea and biscuits provided!
We had a marvellous time last night sharing Silvery Tay to Scapa Flow! 🐳🐢
We have two fabulous events this week....please join us if you are in Orkney!
A date for your diaries…Friday 16 February!
A great turnout for the tour this afternoon - thank you everyone who came out ☺️
Today at 2pm - the postponed event Absent Friends in South Ronaldsay - at the graveyard of St Peter’s Church, Eastside. Join us for an hour of stories of shipwrecks, funny ministers & a surprising literary connection! £5 pp, proceeds to the Storytelling Festival ☺️
One of the most amazing, magical, delicious and sleep deprived few days of my life thus far…❤️

This year’s Storytelling Festival has come to an end! Four days of wonderful tales, songs and adventures - we love Lindsey Gibb, @PeterChandstory and @Kate_Dancingcat! Thank you all so much 🥹🥰
What a great afternoon we had in St Peter’s Kirk - a crowd of over 50 people gathered to hear Master Storyteller Tom Muir share stories of Orkney, Shetland and Faroes. Thank you to @HistChurchScot for providing a lovely venue!
We gather this afternoon in St Peter’s Church in Sandwick for Tales From the Stoorworm’s Teeth, told by Master Storyteller Tom Muir! It’s at 2pm - tickets on the door. Bring a blanket as this traditional historic kirk has no heating….
@HistChurchScot @OrkneyStoF Unfortunately, due to weather conditions and the barriers being closed, we are having to reschedule this tour. Today’s event will now take place in the graveyard @Saint_Magnus.
Unfortunately, one of our invited storytellers, Shonaleigh Cumbers, has had to withdraw from this year’s festival due to illness. Instead, we are delighted to welcome Perthshire storyteller Lindsey Gibb, joining us for the first time!
Check out this week’s @The_Orcadian for coverage of this year’s Storytelling Festival! Only a week to go….
I’m going back to where the magic lives in October. To draw live for one of my favourite storytellers @ShonaleighQ at @OrkneyStoF Just need to figure out how to fit my drawing board in a suitcase… #Orkney #magical
In honour of #volunteersweek here is a photo at the end of the 2022 Orkney Storytelling Festival, featuring guest storytellers and volunteer committee members 🥰 All our committee give their time, stories and expertise for nothing, to ensure that the annual festival can go ahead.

The @OrkneyStoF is helping to keep the island's ancient myths and stories alive. In Donegal, @KeithOCorcoran new book 'Finding Fairy Mysteries in Donegal - Close Encounters with the Wee Folk' is ensuring our stories will be passed onto the next generation. bit.ly/3t2Kf32
Thrilled to hear Blindboy @Rubberbandits discussing Orkney folklore last night in Edinburgh (selkies, the Sea Mither & the Nuckelavee)! Folklorist Tom Muir got a mention too - his tales of the Finfolk/vanishing islands are woven into my recent folklore-memory map of Eynhallow:
@OrkneyStoF What a fabulous event, with the ever wonderful @dragonhistory at the helm - even the rain (mostly) stayed off
Brilliant to see so many gathered at St Peter’s Eastside #SouthRonaldsay #Orkney for @OrkneyStoF with @dragonhistory. A kirk and kirkyard rich in the history of folk through the centuries, loved and cared for by the wonderful Friends of St Peter’s Kirk.
A great turnout for the tour this afternoon - thank you everyone who came out ☺️
Sad that I can’t get to this today…it’s such a serene place, right by the sea… I can imagine it has so many fascinating stories to tell!
Today at 2pm - the postponed event Absent Friends in South Ronaldsay - at the graveyard of St Peter’s Church, Eastside. Join us for an hour of stories of shipwrecks, funny ministers & a surprising literary connection! £5 pp, proceeds to the Storytelling Festival ☺️
It was an honour to be there!
This year’s Storytelling Festival has come to an end! Four days of wonderful tales, songs and adventures - we love Lindsey Gibb, @PeterChandstory and @Kate_Dancingcat! Thank you all so much 🥹🥰
One of the most amazing, magical, delicious and sleep deprived few days of my life thus far…❤️

We lately provided a venue for the @OrkneyStoF - wonderful stories in a fabulous setting!
You are so welcome @OrkneyStoF Wonderful to have these stories of people and place shared in the atmospheric surroundings of St Peter’s on the Bay of Skaill.
What a great afternoon we had in St Peter’s Kirk - a crowd of over 50 people gathered to hear Master Storyteller Tom Muir share stories of Orkney, Shetland and Faroes. Thank you to @HistChurchScot for providing a lovely venue!

No heating but a very warm welcome to @OrkneyStoF St Peter’s on the Bay of Skaill is an atmospheric Orcadian gem and we are so proud to work with local people to care for this historic church.
We gather this afternoon in St Peter’s Church in Sandwick for Tales From the Stoorworm’s Teeth, told by Master Storyteller Tom Muir! It’s at 2pm - tickets on the door. Bring a blanket as this traditional historic kirk has no heating….
Such a pity - sorry for the disappointment. Definitely worth rescheduling for another @OrkneyStoF with so many fascinating stories to be told about the lives of those commemorated in the Eastside kirkyard.
@HistChurchScot @OrkneyStoF Unfortunately, due to weather conditions and the barriers being closed, we are having to reschedule this tour. Today’s event will now take place in the graveyard @Saint_Magnus.
Are you ready to hear some stories from #Orkney? ❤️ Tickets for the 2023 @OrkneyStoF go on sale today, with another packed programme of events planned over the last weekend of October 🎫 Find out more ➡️ orkney.com/news/orkney-st… #VisitOrkney #ScotlandIsCalling
