Storymakers

The creation of any structure, whether living or human-made, becomes possible through the collaboration of a capable group and reaches its peak through the harmony of an artistic team. The blueprint, refinement, and function of any building can be called a “story.” The idea and design of a story are created by a qualified engineer and architect who owe their educational and experiential background to nurturers and teachers in the family, society, and school. The created story is prepared for presentation and effectiveness by a cultivated and artistic group. All these story makers, from story writers and story cultivators to story editors, story critics, narrators, story visualizers, story translators, and other contributors to the creation and refinement of story, deserve recognition and appreciation. They do not merely create stories; they are the pillars of wisdom and the sustainers of storyology of society.
