I believe the answer is:

rambler

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'walker who isn't a good story-teller' is the definition.
'rambler' can be an answer for 'walker' (rambler is a kind of walker). I'm not sure about the rest of the definition.

'walker' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'walker' could be 'ambler' (I've seen this before) and 'ambler' is found within the answer.
A single letter 'r' remains which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rambler that I've seen before include "one not getting to the point" , "Trailing climbing plant" , "Country walker" , "Presumably one goes on" , "Walker - rose" .)
