"But So" storytelling is a narrative technique that adds depth and excitement to your stories. The basic structure is: "X happened, BUT then this happened, SO the result is...". It's a simple yet powerful tool to make your stories more engaging and memorable.
For example, consider this basic story: "I was walking in the park." Using the "But So" technique, we could enhance it: "I was walking in the park, BUT then I saw a lost puppy, SO I spent the afternoon helping it find its way home." The "BUT" introduces a twist or complication, and the "SO" explains the result or outcome.
This technique can be applied to a wide range of stories, from personal anecdotes to complex narratives. It can make your story more engaging by introducing unexpected elements and showing their consequences, providing your audience with a richer and more exciting experience.
