Storytelling Coach Jim Woods on How to Craft Better Stories

I’m honored to have my good friend, Jim Woods, on the show today to help us develop our storytelling chops. Jim is a novelist, story coach, and editor. He has worked with many authors over the years, including some whose books have been on the New York Times bestseller list.

Jim is the host of the Finish Your Book Podcast. He is also the founder of Storycrafting, a coaching service that helps you craft your story.

Storytelling is one of my favorite topics, so we had a lot of fun in this interview geeking out over stories. Jim walks us through several questions such as these:

  • What’s the simplest way to create a story?
  • What separates a great story from a pretty good story?
  • How can you fix your story?
  • How can you build a solid writing habit?

You can find Jim at his Storycrafting site, his personal website, or on Facebook. Make sure to also check out his Write Your Book Podcast.
