(re) Introduction to Storytelling*

Kurt Vonnegut

In this short video, Kurt Vonnegut will show you how to map a story. Once you realize all stories can be mapped, you’ll also realize you do the mapping. That is to say, you don’t need an ad agency, a marketing team or a “storytelling guru”, you need a pen and paper and you need to map it out. And, by the 1,327 you’ve mapped it out, you’ll have a really good story!
