Detailed Book Notes

(pretty much) EVERYTHING You Need to Know About Storytelling In 1 Book — Storyworthy by Matthew Dicks

Learn how to tell unforgettable stories from an award-winning master storyteller

This book changed my life before I actually read it*.

It’s one of the books that’s MOST filled with useful, practical, pretty-much-immediately applicable tips for storytellers that I’ve ever read. (And I’ve read quite a few by now)

In this book, you will not only hear some unforgettable stories from Dicks’ own (insane, tragically funny) life, as well as his experience becoming one of the top storytellers in the world (winning storytelling competitions some three dozen times, and teaching multiple workshops on the craft).

You will also learn how to tell better stories yourself, with insights & tips such as:

• How to make your audience cry
• The Five Permissible Lies of True Storytelling
• Why Jurassic Park is not actually about dinosaurs attacking humans (but the dinosaur attacks serve another purpose that isn’t immediately apparent to movie watchers)
• And MUCH more.
