1. Storytelling, Self, Society - An interdisciplinary journal of storytelling studies. I found it just by googling "storytelling journals." This seems absolutely perfect for me, my only issue is I cannot tell how to access the journal site or any way of submitting to it. I've looked everywhere. Might have to contact people who have been published by it to see what they say.
2. Language & Communication -A journal that provides a forum devoted to the interdisciplinary study of language and communication. Found it researching journals on oral communication. It is extremely broad in the parts of language and communication that it investigates. Submitting to it would require me to focus my paper on the communication aspect of storytelling in addition to the awe aspect.
3. Journal of Screenwriting - This journal, which I found while searching for journals about screenwriting, explores the nature of writing for the moving image, highlighitng current academic thinking around scriptwriting. What I like about this is that it would require me to focus on the story and the language used in film. I'm extremely passionate about film and language. To put them together would be awesome.
4. BYU English Symposium - I have never written anything that I felt confident about presenting at the English Symposium. I think it's a no-brainer students at BYU with an interest in English would be interested in hearing about the awe aspect of storytelling.
5. Film-Philosophy - an international peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to philosophically discussing film studies, aesthetics and world cinema. Found on cmstudies.org (Society for Cinema and Media Studies website). I'm wanting very much to talk about storytelling so that I can stay grounded in language, but the more research I do on journals, the more directed I feel toward talking about storytelling in relation to film.
6. Adaptation - forum to theorize and interrogate the phenomenon of literature on screen from both a literary and film studies perspective. Also found on cmstudies.org. I could discuss perhaps the awe aspect that occurs (or is lost) when literature is adapted to the screen.
