About this deal

Here’s a look at ten distinct takes on the art of storytelling, from writers with a vast array of experience. Some focus on the craft of fiction, while others grapple with personal stories or the process of turning grand ideas into compelling narratives. Whether you’re looking for advice on your own work-in-progress or simply seeking a greater understanding of literary craft, there’s plenty to ponder in these works. My problem was always the middle. Middles can sag. It seems that a story's interior becomes little more than the wasteland a protagonist must traverse to get from the mystery of a beginning to the ultimate challenge of an ending.

Hay muchos manuales sobre narrativa, pero pocos que se enfoquen desde la perspectiva de la neuología y la psicología. Este es el caso de este volumen escrito por Will Storr, donde repasa las claves que hacen que una historia funcione desde la perspectiva científica. La gran cuestión a la que busca respuesta es: ¿son las historias las que nos hacen humanos? Una pregunta que se repite a lo largo del volumen. If you’re a copywriter, you could tell a story about how a customer used the product you’re selling to solve a problem. They also stir up emotions in the hearts of a target audience and they remember lessons from the story long after the end. Stories are also more impactful than facts, figures, logic and reason because they appeal to people’s values and beliefs. What Types of Stories Can You Tell? Description: Marcus Aurelius was a Roman leader who was the mightiest man on the planet 2300 years ago. This book is mainly on being physically well during hard times, and how to be a good person, but the way he tells stories is fantastic.We are born only with two fears, all the rest we learn. One of those fears we learn and petrifies most people is the fear to feel embarrassed.

And the inky smudges... they look as if they were always meant to be leaves floating gently across the sky. As a kid I used to sit around the table, hearing my French grandparents share stories about life during the Second World War and helping the French Resistance movement. I remember seeing my mum sitting down to interview my French grandad about his life and getting captured near Dunkirk as a young French soldier. That’s where my love for storytelling was born. By the age of 26 I had interviewed over 100+ government officials and business leaders across 7 countries. By 2021 my podcast The Unconventionalists won “best-interview podcast” at the podcasting for business awards. I wrote Glow in the Dark, to help entrepreneurs and business leaders impact the world with their story.

Discover in this book how you can structure fun games to share with your family (children) and improve your storytelling skills and creativity.

If you’re searching for inspiration and help to improve your writing skills, then this book is for you. It successfully answers the why behind the writing rules we generally understand and consider commonplace. It was interesting to read from the scientific perspective. But I feel like I knew why already without needing so much detail in some accounts, so it was a mediocre book on craft for me. In Star Wars, Luke meets Obi-Wan Kenobi who then explains to Luke how he can escape his ordinary life and go on an adventure to rescue a princess. The basic driver of everything is the character. Who is s/he really? It might take the entire novel for the character to find out, and the reader might know well before s/he does. Bizarre turns should give the reader clues. While telling the story of how I learnt to write 1,000 words a day , I wrote about my inability to finish a book.

If didn’t give these things up and write 1,000 words every , then I would never write a book (what’s at stake). Every successful story contains a moment of crisis within which the story’s core value(s) is stake. Description: This book was once personally recommended to me by Joe Gebbia (co-founder of Airbnb) when I asked him what book he recommends on storytelling. Simon Sinek does a great job at using storytelling to explain how the ‘Golden Circle’ helps people and companies to do better. Description: Storytelling is a big asset in great Ted Talks, they have to entertain the audience for 10 to 25 minutes. Great stories keep people focused on what you’re telling them. This book explains this concept perfectly and helps you to reshape your stories. The Fourth Monkey has one of the most ingenious openings that I've read in years. This thriller never disappoints.'
