Storytellers change us by the stories they tell. These authors--who are also storytellers--lead us to create universally accessible narratives through which people can make meaning of the things that matter. Loren Niemi AND Nancy Donoval do this better than most anyone on the planet. --Dr. Hank Roubicek, professor of communication at the University of Houston Niemi and Donoval invite you to push the limits of your storytelling. When Loren encouraged me to tell my story from different voices, points of view, and tenses, I realized so many brand-new possibilities for increasing its impact. I never tell a story now without thinking of the unique emotional journey of my characters, my audience, and myself. --Steve Tate, North Carolina-based storyteller Loren Niemi is one of my life and writing heroes. With this book, you can also get up to speed on Nancy Donoval's exceptional knowledge-base. --Mike Finley, the Poet King of St. Paul, Minnesota Delving deeply into the structure of stories, Niemi and Donoval focus on point-of-view and the emotional arc of stories. This insightful new book builds upon their years of helpfulness to writers and storytellers. Loren and Nancy are the A-Team of story development! Grab this tome and read it from beginning to end; you will be glad you did! --Robin Bady, storyteller and educator, New York City
