Book excerpt: This is a book of exercises designed to teach you to trust your instincts as a storyteller. It's not about the rules you need to learn before you break them, the 10 or 3 or 5 easy steps to writing the (your-genre-here) novel or screenplay. It isn't about how to make millions selling what you've written. Plenty of books and websites and seminars already exist to help you there. The goal of this book is to encourage you to think about your own life-the kinds of stories you respond to, how they make you feel, and how those feelings relate to the effect you want your stories to have on your audience. Discovering what connects you to these stories will help you articulate what you need to connect with in the stories you create. Story Workout can be used as a renewable resource because writing isn't something you learn once and are done with.
