And in truth, the stories were amateurish and simplistic.
They all relied on 'telling'. Directly exposing what happened. Each participant wanted to move the story along, but narrative needs the colour of description, dialogue and literary devices too.
They were sort of 'and then... and then... and then...' stories.
