📖  overview

this circle is a storytelling journey—an excuse to play around with how we tell stories and what kinds of stories we tell.

every week or two, we’ll focus on one element of storytelling (pacing, tone, structure, or non-verbal communication) paired with a random theme e.g. “food”.

by the end, you’ll have experimented with different techniques, found your own style, and built a set of stories you can confidently share with friends, coworkers, or anyone who will listen.

this is a low-pressure, playful space to try things out, mess around, and discover your own personal storyteller skills.
