    In the Beginning was Story … Stories orient the life of a people through time, establishing the reality of the world. Without story, it could be said that we do not really exist. The power of story is how we discover who we are.

    The Way of Story offers an integrative approach to writing narrative, combining solid craft with experiential inner discovery. Craft alone is not enough. To guarantee a good story, craft has to be combined with the intangible inner dimensions of writing.
    Writers of all levels and all narrative forms – fiction, non-fiction, plays, screenplays, stories, novels, and memoir – will benefit from understanding the way of story.

    In this insightful interview, Catherine Ann Jones will reveal how to:

    • understand and use the seven steps to story structure
    • create memorable characters and effective dialogue
    • establish your theme and track the story through-line
    • balance your writing craft with your intuitive skills
    • invite the “invisibles” and free the story within you
    • write the story outline as a successful marketing tool
    • apply story techniques for all levels and all story genres
