In an era of AI-generated news fakes, April 1st just doesn’t have the kick it used to.

Trying to get more out of your team or yourself? Want to know more about #improv & its exercises? The “Yes, and” Business Evolution is a wonderful primer to start your exploration. It’s educational & entertaining. Read my review: www.goodreads.com/review/show/6775528183 #creativity #storytelling

Go figure! A missile intended to expand human existence, not end it. Safe travels, when they finally happen.

It is amazing that anyone tries to create art, to express themselves in ways not socially prescribed Bayles & Orland helped my inner eye see my #artmaking path more clearly & clear it of obstacles Review: www.goodreads.com/review/show/4531049924 #creativity #storytelling #writing #selfexpression

After trying to identify how I could possibly use AI in MY #storytelling, I embrace my Fezziwig years. #writing #selfexpression #creativity #research #JustMe #YouDoYou

If you’re going to push the envelope, brace yourself for the odd paper cut. Going further comes with risks, so make it worth the effort.

Many people will hate the way you tell stories or the stories you’ve chosen to tell. That is brilliant! Seriously. Keep going. Your work isn’t meant for everyone, but the reaction says you’re having an impact. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #writing #selfexpression @gbpolytech.bsky.social

I spent decades resisting the cages others built for me only to discover that the true impediments to my freedom were the cages I built around myself. #personalgrowth #evolution #personaldevelopment #growth

So many valuable #insights. So many unique #perspectives. But no single approach is The Way. You’re a #storyteller, not a Mandalorian. Any attempt to believe “This is The Way” is doomed. YOU create The Way for your #stories. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #writing @gbpolytech.bsky.social

Dear novelists, Please stop writing dystopias! They’ve missed the point & are using your novels as training manuals. Signed, The terrified

Crashing isn’t failing if you keep trying. And failing isn’t the end. It’s the next beginning. Allow yourself to rest but keep moving & growing. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #writing #perseverence @ce-gbpolytech.bsky.social @gbpolytech.bsky.social

Welp, there goes that 10 days of my life! If you need me Apr 10-19, I will likely be at Burdock & REPLAY STORY FEST 3! Just annoyed at how many shows & workshops I have to miss. See more at: https:// replaystorytelling.com/storyfest/ #storytelling #truetales #LifeStories @replaystorytelling.com

Let’s demystify #storytelling. Any #story deliver in any manner is really just a conversation, first with myself & then with a single person engaged in my story. Whether on-stage, on-screen or published, my audience–no matter how large–is always an audience of one. sowhatsyourstory.ca #writing

What if a simple, inexpensive source of #biodiesel can be found in the ditches of the Louisiana bayou? www.acs.org/pressroom/presspacs/2026/march/combining-algae-and-oyster-shells-for-biodiesel-born-in-the-bayou.html #sciencewriting #scicomms #EnergyScience

I published a magazine long before I studied magazine #publishing at school. Although formal #training helped me understand what worked & what didn’t, the true education & deepest #understanding came in the doing, not the studying. To #experiment, to fail, to accomplish: that is #education.

I do not know what you know. Haven’t experienced what you’ve experienced. But if I ask questions & listen openly, I can help you tell your story with understanding & respect. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #writing #selfexpression #support @ce-gbpolytech.bsky.social @gbpolytech.bsky.social

I am bodily & mentally exhausted for numerous reasons, some of which also have me grateful & so damned honoured. I am insanely fortunate, & I must never forget that. youtu.be/cVG3PNAhsbk #community #gratitude #gratitude #belonging #storytelling #screenwriting #writing #play #improv

Storytelling is trying to focus a wildfire of memories, feelings & thoughts in the hope of both me & my audience discovering something meaningful. #storytelling #connection #community #truetales #LifeStories

At the end of each day, I take a moment to ask: Have I made my world a better place, today? If I haven’t, I say that’s okay & assure myself I will try harder tomorrow. If I have, I express gratitude & assure myself I will try harder tomorrow. #community #love #gratitude #compassion

Even if you create alone, you never really are. Self-doubt, self-important critics & well-intentioned friends are always ready to weigh in. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #selfexpression #writing @ce-gbpolytech.bsky.social @gbpolytech.bsky.social @shortweird.bsky.social

Whether you’re “serious” or you “just dabble,” your art is the thing you do with passion & with joy. How well you do it is completely immaterial to it being art. #creativity #selfexpression #storytelling @ce-gbpolytech.bsky.social @gbpolytech.bsky.social

Until & unless I become the #filmmaker, #screenwriting is NOT #filmmaking. Accept the #screenplay as its own medium. Even if the film never gets made, make the screenplay a memorable read. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #writing @ce-gbpolytech.bsky.social @gbpolytech.bsky.social

Taking time for yourself is not not working. It’s a chance to reload. Even when relaxing, #storytellers never stop discovering #stories. They just might not write them down immediately. sowhatsyourstory.ca #storytelling #writing @gbpolytech.bsky.social @ce-gbpolytech.bsky.social
