Your mod isn't showing up in the Mod Manager? I think you need a few more things to get it to work:
1. About.xml
Every working mod I know of has  this file. You need it to define the name and description of the mod in the manager. I suggest looking at other mods to get an idea of what it looks like.

2. Rename your "Storytellers.xml" to another filename. I'm not entirely sure but I think your mod having a file with the same filename as another file in the game's Core mod could cause compatibility issues. Just pick another filename with the ".xml" extension.

3. File Hierarchy
When you look at mods in RimWorld's mod folder, you see mods separated into individual folders, with the files inside separated into folders based on what they do. You can't just have your files at the root of your mod folder; the game probably expects different kinds of files in each folder. I suggest looking at other mods and basing their structure on them. Here's an example

<your mod's root folder>
---<"About" folder>
------your "About.xml" file goes here
---<"Defs" folder>
------<"StorytellerDefs" folder. NOTE: Mind the case, your folder in Dropbox had a "StoryTellerDefs" folder, which might cause problems since the game might not look there for files since it is a different case in the core mod>
---------your renamed "Storytellers.xml" goes here

I think that covers just about all the obvious things. It might be a bit OCD but it should work if there's nothing wrong with your .xml file other than a possible filename collision

[Dante King]

The file collision isn't the problem, just checked and all mods are set up like mine, possibly a line of code.

The first six comments on this page has got to be the cutest thing I've seen here since
C.Fenderson's post about his dream where swarm of bees flew in his pants

But oh anyway! you're not gna need a 7+ modder to get this stuff to work! any old 4 skill like me will do! Although according to Jellie I'm the best modder, far better than her and I agree!

But anyway! your file structure just is all wrong
when I download your mod and unpack the .zip
this is what I get

Yeah? I can't put that anywhere!

you need to rearrange (and possibly uncapitalize the T in 'StoryTellerdefs') the stuff like this


and if you need help with things the help subforum is the best place! people actually read those ones
