The ultimate creative resource for everyone who wants to tell a story!

Storybase is the world's only dictionary of essential human situations. It contains 2,363 unique Situations - covering virtually every dimension of the human condition. The Situations do not contain culture-specific conventions or gender stereotypes - they are archetypal elements of human actuality.

The Situations do not write your story for you. They are suggestions that will help you discover your characters and your story. As you explore Storybase, you will project your own ideas onto the Situations - you will gain access to a wider field of creativity!

Create character sets that contain the character names from each of your story projects. View the Situations with the names of your characters. Explore situations from each character's point-of-view.

Select up to three Mindset values and find Situations that match the mental state of your characters. Select up to three Thrust values and find Situations that match the Thrust, or action, of your story.

Browse Situations that match your choices for Characters, Mindset and Thrust. Copy / Paste or Drag / Drop the Situations into a built-in text editor or your favorite word processor.

Use Storybase to discover ideas that already exist in your mind. You will project the contents of your subconscious onto the Situations. This will illuminate the rich minefield of your own personal psyche - the ultimate source of great stories!
