What is a story? Why do we tell stories? Answering these questions is essential for every story craftsperson across all formats, genres, and industries. This class provides instruction on principles of storytelling, why stories work, and how to structure stories to captivate an audience.

Brook West is an author, screenwriter, and training developer whose passion is helping creatives tell stories that stick to your bones.
