"Since
the best stories are the ones that are the most
like life, it should follow that the best story
teachers open a window to more than just
stories. Patrick’s seminars open a window into
the process that helps writers get underneath
all the stuff they think they have to do, and
plug into what they’re meant to do. It is both
practical and magical, and well worth the visit
for any writer who really wants to cross that
bridge."

Patrick A. Horton,
PhD has been best known for nearly a decade quite simply as "The Story
Coach" - consistently providing some of the media industry's most innovative and
radically empowering presentations, workshops, and
seminars along with equally
innovative and radically empowering private consultations and
writing for hire.
The
ground-breaking endeavors and interrelated missions include:
1)
Transforming the individual and collective abilities of all
media professionals in generating creatively and
commercially viable story and media projects
2)
Enhancing the abilities of
media professionals in both navigating and impacting the
media industry as they go
3)
Providing innovative strategies and resource development for
proactively impacting the changing media
industry and changing world at large
4)
Taking the power of story and media to non-media
industry arenas as an adjunct element and integrated
component of strategic planning and development, social
entrepreneurship, and related applications of personal
development and social change
Dr. Horton
recently decided to put the bulk of the time he was
devoting to other people's projects back into his
own work as screenwriter and creative producer under the banner of Wind
&
Thunder Productions.
This shift in focus allows for the creation of viable media
projects in their own right while expanding efforts at both
executing and stimulating social and media advocacy by promoting
strategies for integrating story, media, and effective social change.
However, in the
continued commitment to bringing the best tools and
opportunities for success to those who wish to work in and/or
influence the media industry, ongoing
brief presentations and full day to full weekend seminars will
be provided shortly for
little to no charge in association with his long time
collaborators, Write Brothers Inc./ Movie Magic
Screenwriter and The Writers Store, along with the additional collaboration and support of select media
industry organizations, guilds, and related academic programs.
