Welcome to the Folklore & Fiction podcast, where folklore scholarship meets the storytelling craft.
This episode of the Folklore & Fiction podcast was first published as a newsletter in October 2020. I'm recording it as a supplemental podcast now so that new listeners and subscribers have an opportunity to engage with the material. In it, I'm writing about child lore with help from scholars Gary Alan Fine and others, author Philip Pullman, and The Choral Scholars of University College Dublin. I'm also exploring the use of child lore in storycraft and providing you with an exercise on the topic. (Companion Dispatch: https://csmaccath.com/blog/what-child-lore)
