Learning How to Tell a Great Story
Have you always wanted to tell a great story, write the Great American Novel, or just record your own family stories for future generations? What about teaching your homeschooled high school students how to tell a great story in a creative and engaging way? If any of this describes you, you’ll want to check out How to Tell a Great Story, an online course from Guideposts.
I became a writer at age seven when I wrote my first short story. One of my short essays was even published in a Guideposts book years ago (Their Mysterious Ways). Now all three of my daughters are also writers to varying degrees. My oldest daughter (16) has written numerous short stories and two novellas, with many more planned for the future. The desire to write and tell a great story is generally something intrinsic to your personality, but the nuances and mechanics of the craft can be taught and honed. That’s what the master class How to Tell a Great Story is about.

Thus course is excellent! The short recorded sessions with Edward, Rick, Colleen, Jim, and Amy, were full of helpful information for writers in any genre. The workbook download helped me with note taking and reinforced the learning. I also am grateful that I can retake the course whenever I need a refresher. It is definitely worth $24.99.
