Stories may cross borders—but they do not always carry the same meaning across cultures. How might you create stories that remain authentic to their roots while resonating with readers from different cultural backgrounds?
At our next webinar with author and educator Ned Legaspi, you’ll learn how to identify where meaning might be lost when your story travels and how to adapt narratives without erasing their cultural identity.
“I believe stories can cross cultures more meaningfully when creators understand both their own worldview and their audience’s,” Ned says. Drawing from three decades of experience, Ned will show how culture shapes character, conflict, relationships, values, and audience response.
