The name of the blog became Narrativejournalism when I found others already had storytelling in their titles. I took the term Narrative Journalism from the Nieman Foundation's website, where there are interesting links to storytelling as a topic. Narrative Journalism sounds a tad more serious and responsible than storytelling, which always risks sounding as if it's about creating fictional stories (and we wouldn't want journalists being accused of that.)

One book which combines thoughts on writing fiction and non-fiction is Solutions for Writers, by Sol Stein. It's got some great ideas in it, and I keep reading and re-reading it for advice.

Americans do storytelling really well, and there are dozens of good sites devoted to it. One, relevant to radio journalism is Transom, which has great ideas and links to more great ideas.

I'm still looking around other blogs dealing with storytelling - there are several, but these two have some useful stuff:
Teaching Online Journalism
Multimedia Journalism
