@juergen_hubert There is unfortunately an idea in many oral storytelling communities that writing down a story causes it to "die." The logic says that, once written, the story must be performed in line with the written word or it will be construed as somehow "wrong."
As a person who often takes well-known folk tales and stands them on their heads in the telling, I know better. But even my storytelling teacher repeated this idea when I was still taking classes only a few years ago.
