Good Points

Good for helping you see your story from multiple points of view.


Bad Points

Can wear you out.
I felt like I was sitting at a program designed by Spock for others like him who wanted to use drama as a means to settle an argument.


General Comments

This whole Story Mind thing bothered me but I couldn't figure out why. Then one day I had my 'aha!' moment when it occurred to me that this would be a perfect tool for corporate businesses. How?
Say you wanted to teach employees or associates from your company a creative way to explain the company principles and/ or policies. You decide to have a little fun and use drama as the method to carry your message. By using dramatica, you can create and settle an argument that has been looked at from every possible angle so that the conclusion cannot be disputed.
Plus, you've entertained the associates.
Using drama in that way, in which the theory of story is presented as a problem that needs a solution, (the story mind), dramatica would be perfect. But the whole idea of viewing story as a dramatic problem that takes us on a journey that leads to a solution is just too limiting a perspective- for me. But perfect for a corporate type mentality that wants to use drama as a creative tool for problem solving!
