  • Watch online, or via the Kajabi App
  • The game is always changing! As new things happen, I'll keep adding to and updating this course! 

I've recorded everything I know to take anyone from absolute beginner to storytelling assassin. Whether  you want to go pro, or just shock and awe your friends and family, I can help you get to the next level.

It is I, B. Dave Walters!

And just like you... I was born with ZERO storytelling skills.

I’m one of the very few people who’ve successfully written and had screenplays for film and TV produced, had comics and graphic novels published, and published novels.

I'm best known as the writer of Dungeons & Dragons: A Darkened Wish for IDW comics, and Invitation to Party on G4 TV. I'm the writer of family films Lena & Snowball and The Pet Detectives. I'm also the co-writer of Devil's Brigade, the Salvage Marines TV series and Electropunk Transmedia series. I have written tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), films, novels,  non-fiction books, and over 500 nationally syndicated articles.

After 5 years of working in the streaming space, tons of practice, trial and error I became the first DM for a campaign on television-Invitation to Party on G4 TV-and the DM for the cast of Stranger Things on Netflix Geeked, along with official projects for Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering for Wizards of the Coast, Vampire: The Masquerade / World of Darkness, Chaosium, Paizo, and many other major brands.

I have been blessed to break out in the TTRPG industry and become one of the very few, possibly only person to climb to the highest heights of the TTRPG industry across multiple games and genres, as player, storyteller, and producer...and built a 6 figure business along the way!

This took me 20+ years to accomplish, and today I'm sharing all my secrets in this program so you can do the same in 1/100th the time !
