Story Crafting is creating stories to share with others that express the experience of an event, a personal perspective, a challenge accepted, or a fantasy brought to life. Stories can be shared through writing, drawing, speaking, acting, and body movement. With story crafting, we focus on what we want to say in our stories, how we want other people to see/hear/experience our stories, and how we can invite others to take part in our stories.
