Storyteller Tactics card deck.

It is a deck of 54 cards that can be used to help you build better stories. 

The cards are divided into three suits: Setting, Character, and Plot. 

Each suit has 18 cards, each with a different keyword or phrase on it.

• The Setting cards can be used to help you create a more vivid and believable setting for your story. 
• The Character cards can be used to help you develop your characters more fully. 
• And the Plot cards can be used to help you create a more suspenseful and exciting plot.

To use the Storyteller Tactics card deck, simply draw a card from each suit. The cards you draw will give you some ideas for how to improve your story. For example, if you draw the "Dark Forest" Setting card, you might decide to set your story in a dark and mysterious forest. Or, if you draw the "Stoic" Character card, you might decide to make one of your characters a stoic and unemotional person.

The Storyteller Tactics card deck is a great way to get your creative juices flowing and to help you build better stories. If you are a writer or storyteller, I highly recommend checking it out.

Here are some of the benefits of using the Storyteller Tactics card deck:

• It can help you to come up with new ideas for your stories.
• It can help you to improve your writing skills.
• It can help you to create more suspenseful and exciting stories.
• It can help you to develop your characters more fully.

Brutal capitalism

Starting your own business

Many people nowadays are deciding to make the step, and start their own business, it's in the air ... The days of being an employee for life in a company is over, now people have to change career at least every 2 to 4 years.
And the prospect of having a boss in a corporations that lead a race to the bottom (term devised by Seth Godin) isn't a daily motivation.

But what are the alternatives?

The first thing obviously is to do a bit of soul searching, and understand what makes you unique and then to launch a career as an entrepreneur.
Of course we hear a lot about freelance writer, internet expert, web-designer, or virtual call-center agent, life coach, private tutor and any sort of consultant. 

But at the end of the day ... all these people are discovering that they just have switched their employee's seat for an even tougher job - where this time they have to be the employee, the decision-maker, do all the administrative tasks, and more every-day... because of aggressive deadlines, difficult customers, or a bad payment.
They find the hard way the not so glamorous side of having a business of their own, which offer many challenges like the need to build a network of customers, and build up trust with them, and all that takes time... time when the competitors starting now are making huge discount to enter the market.

So after a while, things can get ... challenging.

And that's because the economy has entered a new phase, a new revolution - and is accelerating the movement, I call this "Brutal Capitalism" and things are getting weirder and weirder ; when you start to realize that jobs like "webcam model" are basically starting to appear as viable business model or an attractive solution for young girls.

Because confronted with the choice of uninteresting jobs paid with minimal wages, they happily turning themselves into sex workers.



This is my rant for the day. Maybe "Brutal Capitalism" isn't hard enough .. "Hell Capitalism" could be more suitable.
