Absolutely brilliant preview video! Alan Moore’s voice and storytelling talent are just mesmerizing. His course looks fantastic. I could honestly watch him talk about stories all day. Wish he had a whole YouTube channel. Seriously tempted to invest time in this. Has anyone here taken the course?

Thanks for sharing btw.

I haven't found time to watch any of the videos yet. I'm a fan of Alan Moore, but not a writer myself so I'd be watching just to enjoy his piercing insights etc.

By the way, I did find a copy of the videos on the seven seas

(I can't remember if it was Moore that came up with the distinction that humans are the only story-telling ape and that is what makes us so different)

Is this what you meant?

Yes - I must have been thinking of Terry Pratchett. Of course, Moore has said a lot about the cross-over between magick and stories (i.e. being the same).

I’ll be watching them as well. He’s definitely entertaining on every level. Thanks again for sharing!
