The primary goal is to teach the craft of writing and storytelling to those who have a story to tell but don’t know where or how to begin, as well as those who already write but wish to improve their skills. If your project is non-fiction, our team can help with the organization and writing of your manuscript by adding storytelling elements to your work.
