This is why author, speaker, and media personality Pamela Christian recommends that authors who have booked speaking engagements plan to begin their talk with a personal story. This helps the audience relate to you and open their heads and hearts to the message you want to share. By telling a relatable, interesting story, audience members will look to you as a credible, trustworthy source, and will want to hear what you are saying and then learn from it. Present the emotion you want the audience to feel, and bring the audience into that emotional state.</p> <p><a href="https://www.authorlearningcenter.com/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-01-27/HowAuthorsCanUseaPersonalStorytoEmotionallyEngageanAudience.mp4">www.authorlearningcenter.com/.../HowAuthorsCanUseaPersonalStorytoEmotionallyEngageanAudience.mp4</a></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: fiction, Nonfiction, Subscriber, video</div>
