Simple + Powerful Storytelling
A Fun, Step by Step, Accessible Entry Point to Storytelling
Do you want to create deeper connections with your audience?
Story is the key.
Style and aesthetics matter, but if you want to make the kind of connections that a thriving creative practice is built on, you need more than the ability to make something look good.
You need to move people.
Story is how it's done.
This workshop is a step by step process for finding a story only you can tell and a framework for developing your basic (yet magic!) 3 act arc.
"This was the first time I left a writing workshop where I was able to succinctly get to the crux of my story and left ready to get to work on the next phase."

What You Get From This Workshop
1 - A Process for Unearthing Ideas that you can use for fiction or non-fiction storytelling
2 - A Basic Framework for Building 3 Act Structures
Start this workshop with a love of good stories and a desire to connect with your audience, and end with the seed of a story that only you can tell and the framework you need to create future 3 act storylines too!
This is a hands on, step by step process.
It makes the ideating and plotting process feel like dominos: step one naturally leads to step two, etc.
Once you have your idea and 3 acts, then you're set loose for the fun part: letting it flow, developing the style, adding details and determining tone.
"This workshop was actually invaluable. Andy has a brilliantly succinct approach to the art of crafting stories"
