Unlock the Heart of Your Story
When we think about the heart, we think about emotions, organs, and the famous "happily ever after". But finding the heart of your story will require more than that. It takes both structure and creativity to make a story shine.
Storytelling has two essential forces: Prehp and Prahsehss. Like a perfectly balanced relationship, they complement each other. Prehp lays the foundation with essential details, while Prahsehss breathes life into the story with unbound imagination.
Master both, and your stories will leap off the page like never before. Ready to transform your storytelling?
Hi. Tidbit here!
Okay, so, remember how last month we were reading the myth about "The Five Suns" that was about the cycles of life on Earth surrounding the chosen deities of the Sun over hundreds of years? Well, I had the privilege of helping a friend with their story, and they turned out to be writing about that exact myth! Isn't that wild? Nothing in this world happens by accident, I tell ya!
Alright, time to reveal a new myth to check out and spice up your writing pallet. While I have reference books on each myth, I encourage you to take to the internet and see how much information you can find!
This month, we journey to Greece and look at the myth of the nymph-turned-goddess, Cholris, and her mythical origins. Kloris was a nymph of the Elisian Fields of the Underworld and was abducted by Zephyrus to be his bride.
Though this myth isn't found in our trusty reference book "Mythology: The Illustrated Anthology of World Myth and Storytelling", I encourage you to pick up a copy and explore all that world mythology has to offer!

Newest Release!
A Love Written in the Stars
She was a protector from the shadows. He was a pure being of flame. The longer they lingered together, the deeper they fell—but love alone may not be enough to defy the laws that bind them. Can they overcome their fate, or will their forbidden love spark chaos and doom them both forever?
