GLENN THOMAS

Glenn was voted RACONTEUR of the night by the audience at Story Night “Holidays”

Glenn’s life wasn’t rosy when growing up. With one exception: the holidays, and his mother being the central figure around whom they revolve. But one day this light in the darkness starts to fade.

TIPS AND TRICKS

EN ROUTE STORIES....

Stakes are what give a story urgency and energy. They create tension. They fill the listener with excitement or dread, and they give them a reason to go on this ride with you. Clear stakes establish why you care, which tells us why we should care.

The story must go deeper than an anecdote. Why did this story leave a lasting effect? Who were you at the beginning and who were you at the end? How were you changed? How do you live your life differently as a result of the events in the story?

Every good story hinges on a decision. Always, at the story's core, will be one key decision. In the most powerful stories, your decision will be a tough one. What happened is of less importance; Your audience really wants to know what you decided to do about what happened.

NOT SURE WHICH STORY TO CHOOSE?

Everyone is full of stories. Sometimes it is hard to choose one. We wrote down some cues to get you going!
