The Beemgee podcast on the craft of developing stories focuses on the emotional response of the audience to the story. Instead of the Hero’s Journey, we concentrate on “The Audience’ Journey” – how authors guide their audience through a story world by manipulating emotions. This is the essential guide to story development for all authors of fiction or memoirs, for screenwriters, game designers, dramatists and dramaturgs, editors and publishers, producers and directors.
