Hi Friend,

"All good stories are about people who want something so badly, they're willing to face seemingly unsurmountable challenges to reach their goal."



I adapted this sentence from Wired For Story by Lisa Cron. For me it's the best 1-sentence description of a story and helps focus me when I'm writing and editing.

In this episode, “World Building for Foresight Practitioners: How To Make Your Scenarios Come Alive,” I share the six-step process that I use when collaborating with foresight professionals and futurists, including how to create compelling scenarios to captivate their audiences and uses the acronym STEEP plus V to share examples of a possible positive scenario.
