A few days ago, I started a story log, as part of learning to tell better stories. Or rather, tell stories better.
Here’s how Matthew Dicks describes it in his book, Storyworthy:
At the end of every day, take a moment and sit down. Reflect upon your day. Find your most storyworthy moment, even if it doesn’t feel very storyworthy. Write it down. Not the whole story, but a few sentences at most. … What is my story from today? What is the thing about today that has made it different from any previous day?
