"The Catalyst Sessions" w/ Bill DeYoung: Lisa Kirchner 7-7-20

Lisa Kirchner

She’s Queen of the St. Petersburg storytellers, but author, journalist and filmmaker Lisa Kirchner said that getting up in front of people, and talking through a true story – no matter how scintillating, shocking or funny – did not always come naturally to her.

However, the host of the bi-monthly True Stories series, in which people are invited to tell a five-minute story in front of a group, said there are many benefits to working through your inevitable lame years.

“I love escaping into other people’ stories,” Kirchner said Tuesday on The Catalyst Sessions. “It’s a great excuse to tell my own stories. And as a writer, there is nothing that sparks creative juices like storytelling. At least for me.” #stpetecatlyst #TampaBay #Radio #keepstpetelit  #stpete #florida #sunshineshere
