Stories Mean Business - Nick Warren

A really short podcast today, because I’m just sitting down to play far cry new dawn.

I talk about the times when you don’t want to use stories, and the struggle I’m having creating my hook/core message.

Yesterday I had a little idea for my post-apocalyptic fiction story, and I talk about it here.

I talk about the time I blagged my way through a police interrogation.

A couple of thoughts about the funeral I was out yesterday, and the power of stories to heal.

I talk about my experience playing Fortnite, my epic (haha) victory, and my subsequent retirement. But more importantly, I talk about how open story loops can build your business.

I’ve been working on my 3rd novel, and after a while away I’ve realised something - its bloody good.

Nick talks about screwing up on video, spelling mistakes, and the value of authenticity over perfection.

This week I’ve been reading the Tao Te Ching, and it’s got me thinking about the amount of time I spend doing two things at once.

I’m slowly rereading Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, a book I read when I was 19, 30 years ago.
