Let’s explore the art of storytelling in writing. After heading to her first writing retreat, Dia discovers the concept of Prescriptive Memoir and takes on the challenge of content creation through adopting a scene-focused approach. Dive into the conversation about starting with "One true scene" vs her old “One true sentence” approach. 

Writing with actual craft isn’t easy and finding your voice in that craft is a slippery fish.  And while this doesn't just apply to the craft of writing, writing is a good way to tease out and forward your own voice- not once, but as a lifelong journey. And we’re up for it because …. it takes a lifetime to sound like yourself. 

Show Notes:

  • Dia explores the importance of details and resonance in storytelling, encouraging a balance between impact and specificity.
  • Learn about Prescriptive Memoir and how your life experiences can become valuable lessons for others.
  • Dive into Dia's new challenge of creating Litsticles, Lessons, and Longform blogs with a focus on scenes.
  • Understand the transformative power of starting narratives with "One true scene" instead of the traditional "one true sentence."
  • Gain insights into the lifelong journey of finding and sounding like your authentic self.
