I love the power of stories, they help paint a mental picture, they  and provide metaphors that help everybody create meaning.  Stories have been told since the beginning of human history and help us to share culture, wisdom and entertainment.

Hear some great stories, learn when to use them. Develop your own stories and learn some structures and techniques to create awesome, memorable tales.
