At StoryBee, quality is our foundation.

You were chosen because your talent speaks for itself, and we believe that creativity is embedded into your very being. With that in mind, we encourage you to build your work around three guiding principles. These principles are designed to empower you further.

1. Trust Your First Instinct

Great art often begins with a spark—a first instinct that, if followed, can lead to groundbreaking work. Think of Salvador Dalí or Pablo Picasso. Both artists were known for trusting their immediate impressions and emotions. Instead of overanalyzing every detail, they allowed their initial vision to guide their creative process, capturing a raw energy that resonated with the world.

Why It Matters:

Overthinking can sometimes dilute that essential spark of creativity. By acting on your first instinct, you keep your work authentic and spontaneous. Trusting your gut helps you tap into your unique skills and personal vision, ensuring that your creation is as vibrant and genuine as you are.

2. Enjoy 100% Creative Freedom Within Our Guidelines

At StoryBee, we believe that freedom is the lifeblood of creativity. You have the freedom to explore, experiment, and express your vision. This freedom comes with the framework of our core guidelines and requirements, which help ensure that every piece meets the high standard of quality we value.

Why It Matters:

Unbounded creativity sparks innovation. When you are free to express your ideas fully while aligning with our shared principles, your work not only stands out but also remains connected to our collaborative vision. This balance between freedom and structure ensures that your creative expression is both personal and purposeful.

3. Plan Your Timeline and Embrace “Good Enough”

While perfection may seem like the ultimate goal, history shows us that progress often wins over perfection.

Why It Matters:

Organizing your creation timeline helps you maintain momentum and meet deadlines without getting bogged down by endless tweaks. Embracing “good enough” means accepting that a finished piece, with all its human imperfections, can be far more impactful than a work that is overworked. This principle is about recognizing when a project is complete enough to share with the world, keeping the creative process dynamic and forward-moving.

Your talent is already proven, and these principles are here to help you unlock even greater potential.

We look forward to seeing your vision come to life at StoryBee. Keep creating, keep innovating, and most importantly, keep being true to your creative self.
