Storytelling in the News
A look at the news through the lens of storytelling
This Storytelling-in-the-News page began in November 2003 and continued
on a daily basis through June 2004, providing a look at top news stories
through the lens of storytelling, along with a collection of book reviews.
With 161 articles, totalling more than 500 pages, I've been showing how storytelling is
already a huge part of the business and political news.
I will still post occasional articles here, but more recently, my daily efforts have
focused on my books:
