The Tale Tinkerer
"Your story deserves to be told!"
I blend a historian’s understanding of cultures and societies with twenty-five years of storytelling passion to help others bring their tales to life. Whether through advanced story structures or well-crafted magic systems, everything here serves one purpose: telling better stories.
As a creator, I develop educational content that transforms storytelling principles into practical tools. I do not claim to be able to teach how to become a published author – my only goal is to help as many people as possible tell their stories, their way. What they ultimately do with those stories is up to them.
“Every world, every system, every character exists to serve the story.” – The Tale Tinkerer philosophy
