David Sewell-McCann

David has been working with narrative his whole life, and it has become the matrix and context for just about everything. He has been a painter, a filmmaker, a Waldorf class teacher, an author, and the writer/teller for Sparkle Stories, and over and over again, he has found storytelling to be the most enduring and clarifying form of connection. It works when nothing else can, and it is teachable. You can explore his teaching at How to Story
