#WritersCoffeeClub July 13: In what ways do you play with the limits of the genre in which you work?

A lot of folklore writers tend to focus on the "hidden meanings" and "secret truths" of folk tales and so forth.

But while these things _are_ worth analyzing, I also want to emphasize something else: These were people who made up stories in order to entertain themselves on long winter evenings. As a #ttrpg player, this is something I can deeply relate to.

And while the tales reveal a lot about their specific cultural context, their mindset was not all that different from modern day amateur storytellers.
