Upcoming Webinars
Writing Your Own Story with Ben Philippe
The first source of inspiration for a story is ourselves. Everyone has a story to tell and that story, by extension, often looks like us. Being able to look at our life and tap into the emotions that drive us and frame past experiences, current dynamics through the prism of “Protagonist’, “obstacle”, “Rival” “Want” can help us start to write these self-inspired tales and find worth in our own experiences.
