As the world becomes increasingly digital, the power of storytelling has never been more important. From social media posts to short films, stories have the ability to captivate and connect with audiences like nothing else. But how can we make sure our stories are not just noise? How can we make sure they are powerful, memorable, and truly impactful?

The answer lies in two key principles: "Show, Don't Sell" and "More Story, Less Noise." These principles are at the heart of effective storytelling, and they can be used to create compelling stories that resonate with audiences of all ages.

"Show, Don't Sell" is a simple but powerful concept. It means that instead of telling your audience what to think or feel, you should show them through your story. This can be achieved through powerful visuals, evocative language, and relatable characters. When you show your audience the story, rather than telling them what to think, they are much more likely to engage with it on a deep, emotional level.

The "More Story, Less Noise" approach is all about cutting through the clutter and focusing on what really matters: the story. In a world where we are bombarded with information and stimuli at every turn, it's easy for stories to get lost in the noise. But by focusing on the core elements of your story and stripping away anything that isn't essential, you can create a powerful and impactful narrative that truly resonates with your audience.

At our digital storytelling course, we believe that these principles are especially important when it comes to creating stories for and by youth. Young people are some of the most creative and innovative storytellers out there, but they can also be some of the most easily dismissed. By using the "Show, Don't Sell" and "More Story, Less Noise" principles, we can help youth storytellers create stories that truly connect with their audiences and have a real impact on the world.

So whether you're a seasoned storyteller or just starting out, remember to "Show, Don't Sell" and focus on "More Story, Less Noise." With these blueprints for better stories, you can create powerful narratives that resonate with audiences of all ages and inspire real change in the world.

This text is an example for how to generate a blog entry in under 10 minutes.. And although I am still fascinated by the power and speed of AI, I also  want to take the opportunity to call out AI and ethics: Everything we enter, or "prompt" to use the new word, in any of these tools is used to train the machine, to feed the beast.  Don't get me wrong, I love a good creative writing buddy, I am just calling out that your prompts, you words, the way you write and connect reality in your individual way, gives the machine a new perspective for future answers. So our personality and individuality is copied and our intellectual DNA is used. Something to be aware of when you prompt any AI tool. Know it, use it, and play!
