  The Storytelling Manual for...

  Storytelling is one of the most powerful tools we have. But we're not talking about a story as a nice-to-have or an occasional distraction from the real work you do. We’re talking about story as the backbone and the underlying structure, and story as a way of ordering your thoughts and connecting with those around you.
  If you want to make the most of every page on your website, every email to your clients and every conversation on site, this is the guidebook you need. It gives you a simple, flexible structure to tell the stories of your practice, your projects, your process, and your team. And, more than that, it reframes writing not as a chore but as an act of clarity and connection.
  The Storytelling Manual for Architects is a short, practical book with a very human mission – to help you find common ground, convey your worth, and show your clients the difference you can make. It’s a heartfelt manifesto for a better way to write and talk about what you do.
  Juliette Mitchell set up Architypal, a writing consultancy for architects, after many years as an editor at Penguin Books. The Storytelling Manual for Architects is both her step-by-step messaging strategy and her personal act of resistance in the face of AI and things to come.
  
  ‘It’s a great little book – both succinct and spirited!’ Ceri Davies, director at Allford Hall Monaghan Morris
  ‘This book is so good, I don’t want to recommend it to other architects. I want to keep it all to myself.’ Lee Holmes, associate director at Wainwrights
  ‘Joyous, loving, accessible, practical, and just what the doctor ordered.’ Barbara Iddon, co-author of Blueprints for the Soul: Why we need emotion in architecture
  ‘I devoured about 80% of it in the first sitting. Full of good and clear ideas.’ Paul Sheeran, principal at Architexture
  ‘Part guidebook, part pep talk, part love letter to clearer, kinder architectural communication. Practical, readable, and quietly radical.’ Simon Drayson, director at George & James Architects

  The Shadow Universe - Exploring...

  For most of human history, the night sky was a mystery filled with countless stars twinkling in the darkness. Ancient civilizations saw patterns in the stars and used them to guide their calendars, stories, and navigation. Yet, behind those points of light lay something even more vast and perplexing—the dark space between them. It wasn't until the development of modern astronomy that scientists began to seriously consider what might exist in the dark regions of the universe. At first, darkness was assumed to be simply empty space, a void where no stars or planets resided. But as our tools improved and our questions deepened, we started to understand that darkness in the cosmos holds far more meaning than we originally thought. 
  The idea that the universe might be filled with something unseen first gained traction in the early 20th century. Astronomers like Fritz Zwicky noticed strange behaviors in galaxy clusters. When calculating the mass of these clusters based on the visible matter, the numbers didn’t add up. Galaxies were moving too fast to be held together by gravity from the matter we could see. Zwicky proposed the existence of "dunkle Materie" or dark matter—something invisible but exerting gravitational pull. This was one of the first scientific suggestions that dark space might not be empty at all, but rather filled with mysterious forces and substances. 
  At the same time, other areas of study began to reveal more about what darkness might mean in a cosmological context. Observations of cosmic microwave background radiation showed that the universe had a very specific structure after the Big Bang, influenced by matter both visible and invisible. These early echoes from the origin of the universe suggested a cosmic framework shaped in part by things we couldn't directly detect. The darkness, once thought to be empty, was influencing the evolution of everything we could see.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  Maybe We Were Stars is not a book of answers. It is a quiet journey through time, memory, and the fragile space between what we see and what we understand.

  Narrated with a contemplative voice that feels both distant and near, this audiobook carries the same poetic rhythm and wonder that shaped the written edition. 
  If you have ever felt out of place in your own timeline, if you have ever looked at the stars and wondered whether they were looking back, this is for you. 
  Gentle, haunting, and full of quiet hope, Maybe We Were Stars invites you to pause, to listen, and to remember that even fading light never truly disappears. 
  Written and edited by António Paulo Pugliese Martins.
