CON-VERSE: WHO CONTROLS THE STORY?
WHERE: Word Travels – City Space
COST: $10–$15
Start: 5:30 pm.
You want to share your story. You tell it. You record it. You publish. Once you put it out, do you the creator need to control what happens next? What if the story you want to tell belongs to someone else or a whole community but you’re getting the applause, accolades and cash. Three story-sharing leaders navigate the journey of your narratives once you throw into the big wide world.
