Making sense of your life with narrative thinking | Wednesday 18 February | 13.00-14.00 | Grizedale Common Room

There is one important academic skill that we routinely neglect in Western academia – narrative thinking. In this short session, you will learn the foundations of narrative and how to apply these to the story of your own life, in exercises that will encourage you to face your past and imagine your future. We will look beyond popular but debunked theories of narrative, such as the hero’s journey and the seven plots, to understand the four real components of narrative – plot, character, world, and narrator. As you will discover, it is understanding these that will help improve your general creativity. Find out more and register via libcal
