Sticking it to The Man

We’re still working to get the kinks out of this blog. For Firefox and Safari, ‘kinks’ is the right word to describe what we’re working on. But for users of that browser which owns 80+% of the market, I’m sorry but we just don’t work in Internet Explorer.

Some invisible hand has prevented even the most basic parts of this oh-so-pretty writing blog from working in Internet Explorer. Our answer - Firefox.

The cool part about downloading Firefox is that you get to be part of a bona fide revolution. So please take the time to download this fan favorite . You’ll never want to go back.

Thanks for stopping by.

The Inaugural Post - Method writing

So it comes to this. There must be 458,269 books on becoming a successful writer (I have no hard data to back that up) by authors with more clout and more salt than the humble amateur behind storyrules. But here we are all the same, thinking about what it means to tell a story and what the best way is to tell it and gain recognition fastest.

Storyrules is not about becoming successful as a writer though. It is a daily exploration of how to uncover a creative direction’s context in order to find an honest story inside of it. This is the basis for Method Writing.

Tonight a dream of passion begins its journey anew. This inaugural post is a salute to stories, to writers, to readers and to that invisible place in space where ideas patiently await discovery. Welcome to the home of method writing. I hope you enjoy it.
