If I had to go back in time I'd tell myself...

Focus on good story. It's going to help you in the edit room.

'Even though I knew it. I didn't make it a priority in the beginning.'

Story telling can seem overwhelming. How do I get good at story?

Focus on story structure and the elements that make up a good story.

Good story telling is basically parables. They are stories more about the audience than the character in the story.

Rich used to wing his story writing but the story structure by Dr. Stanley Williams brought him to a new level.


Now that he can write a great story Rich feels free to tell the stories that are important to him.

By following the basic 3 act structure and beats in your story and understanding that very well you can deviate from it and tell a good story. But knowing the rules are critical.

The key way to make your story connect with your audience is to listen to their feedback and apply it to make the story more relatable. Rinse/Repeat

I can't do this topic justice in a blog. To go deeper we need to connect and come together for the glory of God.

Pray that people will have generous hearts and fund this renaissance.
