Adventures In Storytelling Day 1

Wow. What a launch. Adventures In Storytelling has been birthed with Day 1 in the books. Awesome to see the skills and enthusiasm that John Dickey brings as lead instructor. Technician, artist, businessman... and quite capable of having fun for someone so accomplished.  Inspiring to see him flow with students questions and share his passion for storytelling in a very approachable/immediate way. Emotional moments as John brought to life his kidnapping in Kyrgyzstan with bullets and blood... The lighter moments with the guest presenter, venerable 86 years young John Hoskins bringing us back to occupation Japan, and then Devi and her camera yoga session were highlights for sure...

I couldn't resist getting a few snaps of the process...

And after all had left, I went on course to see the race run in action preview mode by the course director, his wife and kids, and Mark - one of the main builders...

Lots of laughter, lots of great exchanges throughout today, psyched for tomorrow to watch the workshop students apply their magic when all is in full-tilt with nearly 400 participants... Honored to be a part of this process...







and later... so fun to be running with the camera again...

  1. It's a great story you're telling in words and photos! Seems like an inspiring event to create, participate in, and to document.
