In "Thinking On Your Feet", former lawyer and communication expert Chris Graham offers a practical framework for getting better on the spot. You'll learn simple tools for giving clear, thoughtful responses to unexpected questions, plus ways to buy time to organize your thoughts. You'll also learn how to deal with a difficult or distracted audience and how to tame your fear of filler words.These are the same techniques Chris has shared with more than 20,000 professionals across North America, all brought to life through his research, reflection, and storytelling.

What is the sound of story?Voice in writing can seem elusive and hard to define. It’s more than just style it’s rhythm, energy, attitude, and the unique fingerprint of a narrator or character. Voice is shaped by culture and history as much as the mechanics of language.&nbsp;In The Sound of Story, author and writing teacher Jordan Rosenfeld demystifies voice and its close companion, tone, offering writers the tools to develop and refine their own. Through contemporary examples, this book explores how syntax, point of view, emotion and more shape voice on the page.Whether you’re crafting fiction or nonfiction, this book will help you shape and refine voice to create compelling, authentic narratives. The Sound of Story empowers writers to wield voice and tone with purpose, increasing their chances of publication, and delivering a compelling story that leaps off every page.Sibylline Press is proud to announce its new imprint, Sibyl Writing Craft, dedicated to providing definitive titles on writing craft and the book business for writers.
