Are you a good story teller?

Just wondering.
I'm usually really good at coming up with some usable ideas, but I never know where to go in terms of making a story. I read a lot and authors make it flow together so well, I just never think I'll be that good.
Are you like me, or can you formulate a good idea, AND actually make a story?

Not really good at making up stories. But I'm good at telling things that happened, because when other people are telling stories I look at the reaction of the audience to different things...what types of storytellings make them stop listening and look around more mainly. I avoid story elements that waste peoples' time or are redundant or irrelevant.

I'm alright at writing narratives. But telling a story to my friends is different.

i would say i'm a good storyteller since they usually laugh. in terms of situational jokes, i screw up sometimes since i tend to just say whatever comes to mind at the moment.

Yeah, I would say I am but I have really terrible follow through. I've only written like two stories that were complete but that's because they had a deadline. Any story written in my free time is pretty much guaranteed to never see an ending, even if I have one planned out lol
