Lol. Work on it, you can always get better. Try to identify where you are weak in storytelling then consciously work on improving that area.

Isn’t that the roadmap to becoming a stand-up comedian? :-)

Or a novel writer

The storytelling formula is pretty straightforward. Start with a setting which is the exposition. Build up tension as the problem arises and really explain how the problem is a problem. The stress, anxiety, fear are all important emotions to focus on and captivate your audience. The climax is the solution. This is the punchline. It’s the most important part of the story. Delivering this well is essential. Then explain how things turned out after. People will love listening to you if you can do this.
