Will Storr: The Science of Storytelling | How I Write


Listen Later

Will Storr has written 7 books and he’s basically a scientist for storytelling. Now you might be thinking: Do we really need another storytelling guy? But Will is different.


That's because he doesn’t just talk about plot or the hero’s journey, he focuses on character.

Great stories don’t start with plot… they start with people.


The best part? By the time you’re done with the episode, you’ll have the tools to be a better storyteller in your next conversation.
