Storyworld: Writing from the Soul’s Side of the Page
STORYWORLD is an intuitive, wildly creative approach to writing that bypasses planning and dives straight into magic. It’s writing as discovery, as trance, as play.
Storyworlding is the opposite of storyboarding. It’s writing without a map, outline, chart, or safety net. It’s tapping raw, wild creativity that is brewing inside you, even if you aren’t aware of it.
If you’re familiar with ARTbundance … Storyworlding is the Story Completion ARTsignment on steroids. Flying to asteroids.
Storyworlding grows your capacity to let your creative expression live out loud and uncontained. It’s the writing technique you never tried, and the class you never knew you needed.
This is your sacred invitation to heal and create. Adventure into realms where creativity makes us gasp— supported by a community of fellow explorers in the spirit of wild play.

Introducing: The Storyworld Soul Cycle for 2025:
SERIES ONE: Alchemy
Who is coming through? What is their world?
DATES: June 17-July 22, 2025. Weekly classes Tuesday @ 7-9pm Eastern, and everything is recorded.
In Series One, you will give rise to at least two characters, conjured from the raw elements of your intuition and imagination. You’ll explore their inner and outer worlds—their longings, shadows, memories, and the strange places they call home. Backstory is not written, it’s revealed. And no A.I. prompt can do what you can do.
You’ll Write: soul maps, memories, totems, lost diaries, ancestral echoes, letters next sent
You’ll Create: a rich seedbed of personality, emotion, creative contradiction, and soulful story-potential
SERIES TWO: Odyssey
Discovering paths, portals, paradox
DATES: August 1-September 9. Weekly classes Tuesday @ 7-9pm Eastern, and everything is recorded.
In Series Two, your characters are set loose. Where do they go and what happens when they don’t get there? They may diverge, shapeshift, travel dimensions, or stumble into other characters’ dreams. You’ll write without expectation—letting the stories emerge through surprise, surreal encounters, genre-shifting landscapes, and whispered transformations. Nothing is certain. Everything counts.
You’ll Write: scene bursts, dream logs, field guides, postcards from parallel universes, poetic fragments, synesthesia studies
You’ll Create: a collection of vivid, nonlinear scenes that hold curiosity, tension, and mystery
SERIES THREE: Prophecy
Unveiling thresholds, tapestries, timelines
DATES: September 23-October 28. Weekly classes Tuesday @ 7-9pm Eastern, and everything is recorded.
In Series Three, characters collide, return, or perhaps finally meet. Tensions are unearthed, and reckonings are reimagined. This is where wounds surface, bargains are struck, and revelation gets its wings. Emotion rises, consequences steep, and storylines braid, tangle, and fray.
You’ll write: dialogue bursts, mirrored scenes, forgotten memories, mini scripts, dual perspectives, emotional tactics,
You’ll create: dialogue-driven moments, layered narrative threads, pulsing with life and ready to weave into deeper form
SERIES FOUR: Destiny
Theme: What is this story asking to become?
DATES: November 4-December 16. Weekly classes Tuesday @ 7-9pm Eastern, and everything is recorded.
In Series Four, you’ll gather everything you’ve conjured—all your fragments, threads, and half-scenes — and allow a new shape to emerge. Maybe it will become a novel, a performance, a script, a memoir, an anthology, a mythic spellbook, a collage, a show, or a private field guide just for you. You don’t make it happen. Your story knows what it wants to be. You’re simply listening.
You’ll write: connectors and electricity lines, creative spackle, bundled scene studies, transitions amidst the terrain, and a final Storyworlding ritual
You’ll create: an emerging project that never existed until it was created by you…through Storyworlding!
Each of these 6-week series stands alone, but when taken sequentially, they will move toward a larger work that emerges from the fragments.
Bundle Bonus: Enroll in the Storyworlding Soul Cycle and you get an entire Series for FREE.
