What is The Storymaking Hub?
Parents and educators want kids to develop essential skills, think critically, and prepare for the future—but kids just want to have fun, be creative, and spend time with family and friends.
​
What if they could have both?
​
At The Storymaking Hub, we bring families and educators together to equip kids with storytelling, literacy, and creative thinking skills—through engaging, hands-on storymaking experiences they’ll love.
​
Because when learning feels like play, kids thrive.

Storymaking Skills Mastery
Spark
Introduction & Basics
Spark leads the first stage of the storymaking journey! This dragon introduces you to the fundamentals of storymaking—characters, settings, plot, and themes—at a beginner-friendly level. Through Spark’s Starter Kit (available now) and Story Writing Workbook 1 (coming soon), you’ll ignite your creativity and build a strong foundation for crafting stories.
Ember
Heroe's Journey
Ember fuels your storymaking skills with deeper character development and more complex plot structures. This dragon takes you on a journey through the Hero’s Journey, exploring character arcs, motivations, and conflicts. Through Workbook 2 (coming soon), you’ll craft richer, more compelling stories.
Blaze
Worldbuilding
Blaze sets your imagination on fire, guiding you through the complexities of worldbuilding. This dragon helps you create immersive settings, unique cultures, and magic systems that bring your stories to life. With Workbook 3 (later in 2025), you’ll develop worlds that feel real and vibrant, adding depth to your storymaking.
Our Story
​The Storymaking Hub grew out of the collaborative storymaking adventures of Rick Williams Sr. and his grandchildren. Their shared love for space, fantasy, and adventure—fueled by trips to planetariums, libraries, and bookstores—sparked the creation of the Dragon & Dinosaur Chronicles, a fantasy series about a family of star travelers.
​
What began as a family project evolved into a mission to inspire others. With each story, Rick and his team discovered new ways to foster creativity and learning. Today, The Storymaking Hub carries this legacy forward, making storytelling accessible and transformative for children and educators everywhere.
Our Storymaking Approach
We believe that every child has a story to tell. Our storymaking approach makes storymaking accessible and engaging for all ages—helping families and educators nurture creativity, literacy, and critical thinking in ways that feel like play.
