Tell-worthy

For a narrative to be tell-worthy, it should be about the breach of a human plight, a deviation of a canonical script. Suicide and intentional pursuit of death are tell-worthy events.

[...] based on the assumption that the precipitating conditions and state of being 'split in pieces' result in a tell-worthy emotional account.

But it is only at more advanced levels that it begins to be retooled at story openings in the function of a disjunct marker (Jefferson 1978) which announces that something different is coming up (i.e., the launching of a tell-worthy story) or as part of a yes-but turn architecture (Pomerantz 1984) during prefatory talk that functions to push an upcoming disagreement back into the turn-in-progress.
