December Theme: What Scared Me
About this Event

The Seattle Branch of the Northwest Narrative Medicine Collaborative presents our 11th Seattle Interstitium: a storytelling evening that invites our community to share stories of how health and illness shape our lives.

You are invited to listen to/tell a health-related story on the theme "What Scared Me "- whatever that inspires in you.

Your story can be funny, serious, heartfelt, absurd, lyrical, etc. It can be expressed as a narrative, poem, song, movement, or any genre of your liking.

We are seeking story-tellers and story-appreciators, as we gather together to build a narrative medicine community.

Story guidelines:

  • 7 minutes or less
  • may be read from a written story, or told extemporaneously
  • please maintain patient/people privacy and don't use actual names unless you have permission
  • story content can range from serious to funny to absurd to dramatic
  • the event will not be recorded
  • the event will not be judged

We reserve the right to curate the event. We strive to maintain an emotionally safe environment for all, and we will not tolerate disrespectful behavior.

If you would like to be a Storyteller:

Please email us at: Stephanie Cooper at [email protected] and Elizabeth Dorn at [email protected].

Please send us your story proposals as soon as you can.

  • Deadline to apply to be a Storyteller of December 5, 2024.
  • Share with us what the story is about, and how you plan to present it
  • We will choose 8 stories from the submissions that best compliment one another
