Craig Valentine has some reminders for us:

http://www.craigvalentine.com/21-reminders-for-speaking-brilliance/

There are many reminders on that page.  My favorite are the 7 Storytelling Reminders:

1. Tap into your audience’s world with a question before you transport them into your world with a story. 
2. Don’t give the cure before you build the conflict. 
3. Too much narration = a report. Too much dialogue = a stage play. The right mix = a very compelling story. 
4. It’s not the line, it’s the look before and after the line that tells the story 
5. If we don’t see a change in your character, then you don’t have a story. Show the change after the cure. 
6. Just give a hint to describe your scenes and characters. People buy into what they help create so if you go into too much detail, there’s nothing left for them to do. Save those details for your novel. 
7. Don’t just establish the conflict; escalate it using at least two escalation events).

Computer games have used storytelling since the beginning.  This very simple game takes it to a new level:
