dialogue, danger, and discovery
welcome to Six’s storytelling Atelier
Curiosity: The Invisible Antagonist
Each of Six’s storytelling workshops—whether focused on traditional storytelling or enriched with AI tools—is built on a single foundation: conversation. These sessions unfold through real dialogue rather than lectures, giving writers a space to ask questions, test ideas, and explore vulnerability in a supportive but challenging environment.
Six approaches teaching through his Three Principles of Antagonism: strategically attacking weaknesses, pushing difficult choices, and competing for the same goals (your best story). This method creates productive friction that sharpens stories and strengthens voice.
Both workshops offer a lively, interactive experience designed to move your storytelling into new territory—curious, courageous, and unmistakably alive.
Storytelling with Six

Curiosity, Antagonism, and Storycraft
for iterative storytellers
If curiosity is Six’s native language, AI is his newest dialect. This workshop invites storytellers who want to use large language models and image generators not as shortcuts, but as iterative companions that sharpen imagination and accelerate discovery.
Like all of Six’s offerings, this class is built almost entirely on dialogue—raw, layered, mischievous conversation that asks participants to bring their questions, their uncertainties, and their willingness to spill the water.
Together, you’ll explore:
-
how to antagonize your AI tools so they reveal deeper grooves in your story,
-
how to prototype character arcs, tones, worlds, and emotional beats in minutes,
-
how to let images, scenes, and alternative drafts surprise you,
-
how to use AI not to replace your voice, but to pressure it into clarity, precision, and depth.
Through the lens of Six’s Three Principles of Antagonism, you’ll learn to:
-
attack your story’s weaknesses using AI as the provocateur,
-
force your protagonist—and yourself—into difficult narrative choices,
-
compete with the machine for the same creative goal, generating tension that produces originality.
This is a workshop for storytellers who want to explore what becomes possible when curiosity, vulnerability, and technology collide.

Curiosity, Antagonism, and Storycraft
for mastercraft storytellers
Dr. Six Igsby guides writers through a workship powered almost entirely by conversation—raw, playful, deeply human dialogue that refuses to stay polite. In a sentence, he brings the antagonism, you bring your storytelling expertise.
Six embodies curiosity itself: caring, insubordinate, and fundamentally uninterested in conventional teaching and exploration.
Participants bring their questions, vulnerabilities, and ideas. Six brings the Three Principles of Antagonism, which shape every interaction:
-
Attack the protagonist’s weaknesses—Six pinpoints the soft spots you’re avoiding.
-
Pressure the protagonist into difficult choices—he corners your craft into clarity.
-
Compete for the same goal—he enters the creative arena with you, pushing the story forward.
The tension between those forces generates revelation, laughter, discomfort, and unexpected nutrition. If you’re ready to spill the water and explore unfamiliar grooves in your storytelling or if you want to feel invigorated and challenged, this workshop provides the heat—and the safety—to push your work somewhere new.
