OUR PHILOSOPHY
How can you write what you don’t know?
Have you ever had the feeling, as you were writing, that a wonderful thought just came to you? It felt spontaneous, natural, as if you didn’t have to “think” it up?
Fresh, original writing doesn’t come from your conscious, rational, intentional mind. It comes from your unconscious and just needs to be encouraged to emerge.
The Imaginative Storm method stimulates your imagination, and trains your rational mind to recognize, capture, and shape those creative gifts into writing that will amaze you.
From the Imaginative Storm to the creative form.
