Situation and testimonials 101: Regardless of whether a story's characters are humans,

animals, divinities, aliens, etc -- all stories are about situations. Story listeners can project themselves into these characters, and imagine themselves in these situations. The listeners can consider if they might do things the same or differently from how the characters do things. This gives the listeners and readers practice for living. To share testimonials of the use of our products or services invites other possible users to try them.

Throw oneself into telling the story. Believe in the value of the story, and be enthusiastic about sharing it with listeners. Commit oneself to the story, trust it, get into it, and tell it whole-heartedly. It should be an “Every body’s in” adventure. Use voice modulation. Give variations in tone-of-voice, attitude, and emotion; speed, pitch, and rhythm. Give contrast -- even opposites -- between the various voices (slow and fast, continuously and with pauses, soft and loud, low and high pitch, meek and proud emotions, etc). Find your voice.

Tips to share the story:

Expression. Use facial expressions, gestures, body language (posture and movement). Visualization. Visualize the elements of each scene and describe these elements to listeners. (Your family may have a great idea to share with you) Act. Act-out (step-into, role-play) characters: speak their words and physically become these characters. (The purple cow)
