There’s something undeniably magical about opening an old notebook and discovering the wisdom of the author. I have been exploring my grandmother’s notes on elocution and have written a number of blogs on its contents, aptly titled “Graceful Speech & Timeless Tales”
This post is to serve as an index and as a gateway to the treasure trove of posts, notes and personal reflections on the art of speaking with poise and telling stories with heart.
Having written these posts and exploring the notebook, I often wonder what she would think about my additions and how they are being used. Good I hope in reflecting her life as a teacher and in helping others.

I hope that you have found these posts both helpful and inspiring. Writing this series has been a rewarding experience for me and gained as much from reading it as I have from putting it together.
It is likely that there will be additional posts in this series as I continue to explore and reflect upon more entries in the notebook. I will update and republish this list when I post anything further from the notebook.
