PORT ANGELES — Aimee Ringle, a Port Townsend musician and storyteller, is headed for the Port Angeles Library, 2210 S. Peabody St., for the March Story Swap, a free event this Tuesday.
Ringle’s story “The Cinderbiter,” a Hebridean-Scots tale of a boy and a sea monster, will start the evening at 7 p.m. in the library’s Raymond Carver Room. Then comes a refreshment break at 8 p.m. and the open mic for more stories from 8:15 p.m. till 9 p.m.
Ringle, who’s lived in Port Townsend for five years, has studied with Daniel Deardorff of the Mythsinger Foundation and traveled to Devon, England, to a workshop with British mythologist and rites-of-passage facilitator Martin Shaw.
These days, she’s enamored with folktales, legends and fairy stories from around the world.
Reviving the old stories, she says, is the heartstring of her work as a storyteller.
