Story Crossroads Academy featured...
Available to view now, we have a 3-minute segment as part of the show Contact to talk about the "Storytelling Basics in 8 Hours." It will also air on Friday, November 5, 2021 at 9:55pm MDT. Click here or the picture to watch. |
On October 9, 2021, Milbre Burch taught several genres of storytelling complete with examples and even a 11-page handout. That's impressive. We had a quick tech moment that worked out within 1-2 minutes and loved the patience of everyone. That was a first for us. Yet, Milbre, as graceful as ever, continued on and
we soaked in the knowledge and got to ask our questions.
