That be my name and Storytelling is my game. As a young boy of 4 and 5 years of age I had many adventures and dreams. About 45 years later while living at then Fontana Hall, now The Edge, I started writing my stories with my remagination.
I am a man of humble means who now lives On the Edge at the Edge. I am not your average and ordinary guy. As I stated earlier, from a young age I have been filled with whimsical magical thoughts and ideas. Just since I reached my fiftieth year on this earth did I start writing my little stories and vignettes down and then discovered that I love to tell them to anyone who will listen.
DavidtheStoryTeller, is actually David S. Harkins, a Christian man who is daily inspired by my two children, Daniel and Dana Grace. I am far from being a perfect man and I do strive to do the best I can.
My early life was spent on the banks of the Ohio River in Western Pennsylvania in Beaver County. Many of my early stories are about those fun and magical times growing up in Baden and Chippewa. Later when my family moved to Central Florida, I found much more material for stories many of which have not been written yet.
I write my stories mainly so I can tell them to anyone who will listen to them. As of yet I have not hit it big and I am well on my way to enjoying the fruits of my labor. My Motto is: “Everyday is a Story and There is a Story in Every Day!” I believe that as a story writer and teller all your have to do is let the natural juices of life flow from your pen and capture the reality and of course the magic of life.
I am now in my fifties so therefore I was born in the fifties of the last century and this I do believe gives me a perspective that not all have. I like to make stories out of riding bikes and playing in dirt piles and in mud puddles and of course going fishing.
Well, there you have it, DavidtheStoryTeller, a man of whimsical magical times and places.
