Two hours Crash Course on Business Storytelling
The best way for any organization to improve its performance and increase its retention is by offering professional development opportunities to its employees. The more the employees are motivated, the more it adds to the company’s productivity.
‘You don’t build a Business. You build People, and then People build the Business.’

Or it may be just a short course or session arranged by the HR or an organisation to take the employees away from the day to day routine rut for doing something more creative or recreational.

Importance of Having a Good Friend at Work
I personally feel one of the overlooked factors by few leaders and HRs - Does this employee have a really GOOD FRIEND in office? Would love to hear your thoughts We all spend more time of day in the office than at home. Human beings are social creatures, and our mental well-being is deeply influenced by the quality of our office relationships. SHARING your office worries, DISCUSSING that toxic manager problems, or simply VENTING to that good friend who understands your work-related struggles can help alleviate stress, provide much-needed emotional relief and make the day-to-day grind more bearable. When we feel connected and valued, we are more likely to be motivated, productive and committed to our organization. Not all are fortunate to have a best friend in the office. Hence if you have a best friend/s in office, then please thank the Holy God for it BTW in my Business Storytelling workshop for HR, I deeply discuss on this topic.

Okay this is an absurdly specific ask for Storyteller Saturday....what is one wip outside of your posted/main one you'd like to talk about? Or alternatively, what is something within your main wip you want somebody to give you an excuse to talk about?
Feel free to answer either or both!
Oooooo, I’ve been looking for an excuse to rave about my vampire WIP!!!
So this is my longest story. The Price of Blood currently sits at over 120k words in draft 1. Almost 30 chapters. I took a break from working on draft 2 to work on The Lies They Tell during a fiction writing workshop I took in the spring semester at school.
It’s my other queer fantasy novel, featuring one very tall princess (Her name is incredibly long, but she goes by her first middle name, Victoria) that’s abducted by a vampire cult to harbor the soul of the God of Shadows and Subterfuge, AKA the vampire anti-christ. Her entire homeland Halaafin, ruled by the Halaa—sort of half elves basically? They’re one of the only people in this world that have magic. Pure humans can’t use magic—is overrun by this cult and basically destroyed. She makes a bargain with a spider witch that's also been betrayed by the cult to save her life and that of her unborn child. The ritual to summon the vampire anti-christ is sabotaged, but the vampires don’t know it. She manages to escape not long after.
Queue 15 years of living alone with her son in the middle of the woods of the neighboring empire until he’s old enough to help her fight the vampires and retake their kingdom. But things don’t go according to plan. The spider witch tells her she has to get a jump on their plans to destroy the cult early, before her son is ready by Victoria's standards. Queue her teaching her son a lot about his history and also her running into her childhood best friend/almost lover, a duchess in the empire that serves the empress as a professional monster hunter. The two reconnect to fight the cult, fall back in love with one another, and also work on healing from the trauma of losing their families to the cult. It's a very gay story full of angst, dry humor, and lots of dead vampires. Also stresses the importance of family and loved ones in the healing process, and how grieving is inherently ugly. (I wrote a lot of this WIP while my own grandmother was dying, so loss is a big theme in it, as well as love continuing after death)
Also guns. Victoria has been removed from modern society for almost twenty years, so when she comes back to civilization, she's introduced to more modern monster hunting equipment used by non-magic people. And let me tell you: nothing makes this giant bisexual disaster happier than getting to shoot vampires and monsters in the head point blank with a revolver.
#writeblr#writeblr community#writers of tumblr#writers on tumblr#writers community#writer community#storyteller saturday#lgbtq community#lgbtq writing#queer fiction#this wip is my greatest achievement honestly#and the prospect of having to go back to fix plot holes#and write in a character that didn't even exist in the original draft#is a huge undertaking#but I'm so incredibly proud of this story#and it's probably my favorite piece I've ever written#so yeah#thank you for letting me ramble#I don't want to spoil too much of the story#because I plan on returning to it fairly soon#now that my fiction writing workshop is done#and the lies they tell is also entering draft 2 status#Victoria is such a disaster#and I love her#and Giselle is such a fop sometimes#they're total opposites#and they love each other#and I love them

you guys i've been nauseously anxious about sending my original fiction to the irl writing group bc i've been like "i know this is technically good but i also know that it's an unpleasant horror story about women who are just The Worst (TM), and it'll break my heart if they tear it to shreds. even though it's likely to get torn to shreds"
i just got an email from one of the group members (a very insightful woman in her 50s or so) that was like "i'll have more substantial feedback next week, but i've DNFed ten professionally published books this month and this is one thing i want to keep reading. it's the best story i've read in a while and i hope we get to read more"
i'm gonna. cry.
#i've been talking myself down from anxiety spirals like negative feedback is good it will tell you how this comes across to an average#audience. you KNOW that your work isn't pleasant or easy to read so it won't be hurtful when they tell you it's unpleasant and difficult to#read. & i'm sure i WILL get some of that in the workshop (because if i don't then i won't have done my storytelling job right)#but knowing that it was a story for at least one person there.... WAHUGUGH. WAILS#original fiction

white they in my class yesterday was critiques on there being little to no dramatic conflict in their story, and they justified that by saying "well, I believe conflict is a western way of writing stories. eastern stories like some ghibli films dont have any conflict. if i dont want to add conflict to a story, i dont." which annoyed me but i want to ask. am i crazy for thinking thats a super reductive way to look at eastern storytelling?
#first off i dont think its TRUE that ghibli movies are conflictless. but besides that#seems a little racist to look at all of eastern storytelling like theyre more enlightened than the westerners who put problems into fiction#but i honestly dont know that much abt eastern literature it just SEEMS off to me#idk if im just annoyed because this person wouldnt tak critique (which annoys me the most out of anything in the world.)#vent#also ya ya ya you love conflictless eastern storytelling but ur white in america rn. do you think u can hack out an attempt to replicate#..another hemisphere's literature in your three month short story workshop? good luck.

bruh idk what's the damage on all those spiteful writers who have to have a twist ending and change shit at the last minute when people guess what's going on. when someone speculates about an upcoming twist or catches on to what I've been doing I light up like the fucking vegas strip at dusk
#It takes all my restraint not to start spilling the beans on the little breadcrumbs i left and the cool plot thing I've developed in my head#Like!! You guys noticed that!! You picked up what I'm putting down!!#We're in this story TOGETHER and not only are you actively thinking about the thing I've created#We're on the same page!! You drew a conclusion about something I tried to hint about that I'm planning!#It's like we're solving a mystery together. Or doing an escape room#Where im frantically building the puzzles around you while you solve them#Idk it's just cool how we scream into the void about the stories we love and then another voice starts screaming back#Personal#Writing#And you don't get a whole lot of that parallel/simultaneous give and take between author and audience that much#Fanfiction is a medium of literature but it's also a community#I mean fan works in general but my experience specifically is in writing#And in studying literature as a concept and the history of new genres developing#Like somebody was the first person to come up with the rules of a sonnet (building on rules for previous poem forms)#And now everybody agrees what the general concept of a sonnet is even if there are variations#And I think it's cool that fanfic has developed its own subset of genres like drabble and 5+1 times xyz happened#The tropes and formulas for what makes a story. The shortcuts you take to get your reader on the same page with you (metaphorically)#And digital literature is its own developing field of born digital texts vs things transferred to a digital medium and necessarily altered#Idk fanfiction is just an interesting form of literature and community over a story#in a way that is more familiar to the literal thousands of years of storytelling that came before#As opposed to this modern day concept of IP and crackdown on taking someone else's idea and just playing with or engaging with it#Because if someone else touches it they could conceivably make money off the idea that Could Have Been Yours#And society is so ruthless that it's created a culture of selfishness and individualism just to survive#When we could all just be workshopping stories and playing with blorbos#the way hundreds of years of writers were playing with the idea of some dude named king arthur or the story of gilgamesh and enkidu#Before we had a concept of authorship necessitated by our capitalist society#Tags

I should make a Security Breach rewrite AU where events from my Plex History stuff either happened or didn't happen to basically shake up everything.
This would mean Monty is an actual dinosaur, Chica can fucking fly, Roxy and Foxy are a wild west bandit duo with horsies instead of go-karts and that's as far as I've got but god damn can you imagine?? Gregory trying to run and getting fucking lassoed or snatched into the sky or something like. He'd have to be either a genius to still destroy them or be forced to free at least one of them from Glitchtrap to not die. He could not get away with his canon stuff here he's just doomed if he tries that lmao
#i really like my carnival bonnie so maybe put him in somewhere#i say. as if the carnival has to close on this situation#mangle in kids cove or something with sunny and moon still in the theatre maybe?#freddy is just zags now. or he's the same and his lack of action is just so much more obvious#bro just leaves gregory alone like no dumbass theres a bird of prey out there and he's very small lmao#actually if i move Chica's attraction i can keep the workshop and mangle can still be in there#chica either gets the cupcake factory or the entirety of the daycare/kids cove area for her attraction instead#with sunny and moon still having the theatre#storyteller happened already but tiger rock wasn't scrapped so he gets to have his own little place and keep his friendship with pixie#(chica mark 4 who is the flying one)#i love their dynamic it's so sweet and wholesome and important to everything#dj is the same because realistically you can't improve on perfection#the only difference is that's where roxy is instead of chica but also this mean thats roxy doesn't have the minis#which is devastating to me so maybe still shuffle that around so she can keep them they're my favourite dynamic#dhjdbdi gregory beats sunny and moon by dropping the trap door in the stage and locking it.#get backstaged idiot#anyway this would be wild honestly and would require me to find their weaknesses to get destroyed so that's fun

Story Prompt 74
Each person had their own level to navigate, their own demons to face. Yet, amidst the chaos, they all shared one truth: they were in this together.
On the corner of 8th and Elm, a worn-out diner stood, its neon sign flickering like a heartbeat. Inside, the aroma of coffee mingled with the scent of desperation. A waitress with tired eyes poured refills for the regulars, their stories etched in the lines of their faces.
At a booth in the corner, two strangers found themselves drawn together by the invisible thread of shared struggle. One, a weary artist with paint-stained hands, sought solace in his sketches. The other, a young woman with dreams as fragile as glass, juggled bills like promises she couldn't keep.
"You ever feel like you're just spinning your wheels?" the artist mused, swirling his coffee.
The woman nodded, her gaze fixed on the rain-streaked window. "Every damn day. Like no matter how hard I try, I can't catch a break."
Their words hung in the air, a symphony of echoes bouncing off the linoleum floor. In that moment, they weren't just strangers – they were kindred spirits, bound by the shared burden of existence.

Noticing the mention of superhero stories, by making the villain's power the ability to turn other people into villians it automatically makes the stakes more personal because Marinette and Adrien are fighting to save thier friends.
Chat Blanc and Ephemeral give Marinette two traumatic events that say an identity reveal is a bad idea.
And the whole show is about how individual actions affect others.
A great Twitter thread on character-driven stories, character arcs, and agency by Naomi Hughes
