A Story Mapping and Writing Experience with Branch Out!

Write Away will appeal to you if you have tales, yarns, neighborhood histories, family legends, or any kind of story you’ve been wanting to investigate. You do not need any experience in making art or writing, just a story to share!

• We start by creating visual maps that show the elements of the stories.

• These end up revealing character and setting details, and allow us to see more connections between events and people.

• Our maps also show us the way to themes to explore and develop when the writing begins.
