from Tell The Damn Story · host Alex Simmons & Chris Ryan

In this energizing episode of Tell The Damn Story, hosts Alex Simmons and Chris Ryan team up to reveal the essential secrets of successful collaborative storytelling. Drawing from decades of experience—Alex with his storied background in comic books, fiction, and the legendary Blackjack series, and Chris with his deep dive into the independent publishing world—these two seasoned writers come together to shed light on the real challenges and incredible possibilities that come with writing as a duo or as part of a creative team.Listeners are in for a treasure trove of writing gold as Alex and Chris crack open the toolbox for writers seeking to master collaboration. They break down everything — from establishing clear expectations and navigating differing visions to balancing unique writing styles and personalities —and ensure workloads are fairly shared. Learn how to set the “playing field rules,” tackle sensitive topics with respect, and discover the importance of serving the story above all else—no matter whose name is on the cover.Click here for our TTDS Collaboration Guide.Have any questions, comments, or suggestions?Then, please leave them in the Comments Section.Write: [email protected] follow us on ...⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@Tell The Damn Story⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.TellTheDamnStory.comwww.Facebook.com/Tell The Damn Story⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube.com/ Tell The Damn Story⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Stories change lives.
