Storytelling and Noise

I have written an article at The Lab, the first in a series called “Best Practices in Storytelling”. As someone who has spent most of my life learning how to tell stories that can change the world, in one medium or another, I have made it a part of my work and I’m beginning to write down what I’ve learned. I would love for you to come take a look.

I have also written an article at the Co-op, called “Turning Down The Background Noise”, which picks up where Toxic Soup left off. Some really interesting comments there as well. Please visit!

I hope you’re all having a lovely week.
