About the Book

Universal Grammar of Story(TM): THE WORKBOOK is a companion study guide for the main text of Universal Grammar of Story(TM): An Author's Guide to Writing for the Soul of the World. The workbook provides practical tools for navigating deeper into the multiple levels of the original text, making it easier to learn and apply the theories of this revolutionary new mythopoetic theory of writing. Exercises range in complexity from easy for the novice writer to quite challenging for the seasoned professional.

The workbook contains nearly 200 guiding questions and exercises (many with example answers), nearly 30 worksheets, and over 25 tables along with neatly drafted charts providing clarity for understanding the fascinating and revolutionary new mythopoetic theory of writing. Additionally, each chapter ends with direction for those interested in developing or advancing their own literary salons.

The workbook can be used anytime in the writing: before, during, or even after a story is written.

The workbook is helpful to use:


Before a single word hits the page

After some writing has been done but the story seems to stop

When a story just seems to go in circles even after hundreds of pages are written

Returning to a story you gave up on years ago, but which will not give up on you

Busting out of any form of writer's block

Analyze what makes a well-loved story particularly strong

Evaluate why a box office flop flopped

To help another writer understand why a story is stuck in writer's block


The chapters of the workbook follow the same order as those of the main text of Universal Grammar of Story(TM). However, a "prerequisites" chapter has been added for writers who have only a vague idea for a story and need to develop a more concrete grasp of it before putting it through the paces of the chapters to come. As in the main text, chapters 1-4 address personal, social, and mythological drives calling us to write and provide exercises in responding to these drives by enhancing our emotional and intuitive intelligence to match the lifelong training we've given our logical mind. Chapters 5 & 6 delve into the nature and power of language and direct the writer in how simple changes in our everyday speech can dramatically alter our storytelling. Chapters 7-10 expand on the core narrative theories of storytelling with practical exercises in structure, chemistry, and timing. Finally, the remaining two chapters 11 & 12 explore humanity's mythological yearnings in stories and how to wick a story's spirit into the form brought about by this universal theory of writing.

Many aspects of Universal Grammar of Story(TM) can be easily grasped and immediately put to use. But there are other deeper dimensions that this workbook helps to develop over time and with dedicated practice and patience.

The Universal Grammar of Story is a body of wisdom the writer never outgrows. It evolves with the artist over time becoming ever more multifaceted as one's focus shifts with maturity and life experience. It takes us across a span of interest ranging from the nuts and bolts of writing found in chapters on core narrative theories, to the fundamental philosophies within chapters on
