Want to Learn Storytelling? - Free eBook for 'Aspiring Storytellers'



Our previous eBook, "The Power of Storytelling" has got 10,000 + downloads in less than one year (including 5,200 on Scribd itself).

Inspired by the immense success of our previous eBook, we decided to inspire 'Aspiring Storytellers' and guide them step by step in the storytelling journey. The eBook also includes sections on Brand Storytelling FAQ, Storytelling on Social media and Resources/suggested readings. Bon Voyage!!!

An Introduction
My life has been a pretty interesting story. Sometimes I jokingly say, “Sometimes your 'life' itself is such a story, that 'story' has to come to your life.”
My beloved teacher Michael Margolis says that social media has democratized storytelling and I have joined his movement to spearhead storytelling to the masses. Sometime back, a friend came to me and told me, "I want to be a storyteller too. What can I do to become one or is it a gift from God rather?"


I replied with a subtle smile, "Probably God first makes you an idealist and then surrounds you with unidealistic circumstances all around. This gift of 'a bundle of contradictions' exposes one to the weirdness of life. Weirdness and contradictions of life often make for great stories. The best stories are often inspired by the beloved or the divine. And then like any other skill, it is practice, practice and more practice." This is how the idea to create this e-book was born and named.

Future of humanity
In the end, we all will become storytellers. Our hearts connect to stories, our brains are wired for stories and our ears want to listen to stories. We want our stories to be heard because our experiences are stories, our complaints are stories and sometimes the biggest burden on our soul, are our untold stories.
Great people / legends leave behind legendary stories. Great souls write inspiring stories. Great angels in our life keep with themselves our stories of failures and mistakes-our embarrassing stories.
So, are you ready with your “Inspiring Story”?

How Introverts like Guy Kawasaki & Pete Cashmore are changing the rules of the game with Online Branding?

18th January, 2013 And how a book changed my life forever? Caution-Nobody is a complete extrovert or introvert. These are tendencies and we all are on different points of the scale. We have lived in a world which worships the ‘Extrovert’ and pushes the ‘Introvert’ to become an extrovert, to get success. As 'The New York Times' bestselling author Susan Cain says, “Introversion along with its cousins sensitivity, seriousness and shyness is now a second class personality trait.” But many of us have not even realised the world has changed. The credit for this goes to Social Media (aka Facebook, Linkedin Twitter and others), which arrived around 2006. Social Media gives an opportunity to introverts to express themselves from the computer (later they can come out in the open to express their passions.) Sometime back, Raja Choudhury, well known Digital Filmmaker-Director & Founder, Universal Quest & C3CUBE Multimedia, recommended me to read The New York Time
