Thanks for considering Story Like a Journalist Radio. This podcast is a celebration of creativity and entrepreneurship. I am an author and author coach, and this project started out as a workbook/textbook to help novelists apply the lessons from the journalism classroom to their fiction. But the podcast will cover creativity in broader forms, including music, visual arts, collaborations, culinary arts and using small business to create connections. There will be a lot about storytelling , from crafting a short story to sharing your personal story on your social media. #SLAJRadio

Check out interviews with other creative types on how they harness their creativity, shape their ideas, and how they stay healthy despite long periods sitting or standing.  I try to keep the discussions light and upbeat, and they are definitely safe for work.

#SLAJRadio explores creativity using observation techniques and the 5-W’s.  That’s why each episode title is phrased as a 5-W’s question.

The show is hosted by me, Amber Royer, author of the Chocoverse Trilogy and the Bean to Bar Mysteries. It is Produced and edited by Jacob Royer who blogs at Gardener’s Watch.

Get Started by viewing the first episode below, where I explain the concept and rope Jake into participating in a character building exercise (of the fictional variety).  — The link will take you to Spotify.
