A DECADE+ OF STORYTELLING POWERED BY THE BEST WRITERS ON THE PLANET

BE PART OF THE LEGACY

TAMPA BAY • FEBRUARY 23-24 2026

This FINAL encore experience will be unlike any other. Because like everything we do, it's been "reimagined" from beginning to end. It's not a virtual or hybrid event. It's not a conference. It's not a seminar, a workshop, a meeting, or a symposium. And it's not your typical run-of-the-mill everyday event crammed with stages, keynote speeches, team-building exercises, PowerPoint presentations, and all the other conventional humdrum. Because it's up close & personal by design. Where conversation trumps presentation. And where authentic connection runs deep.

Encouraging Words: Do You Have the Write Stuff?

In 1925, Langston Hughes, an aspiring writer working as a busboy at a hotel, discovered that a poet he admired (Vachel Lindsey) was staying there as a guest. Hughes shyly slipped Lindsey some of his own poetry, which Lindsey later praised enthusiastically at a public reading. Lindsey’s encouragement resulted in Hughes receiving a university scholarship, furthering him on his way to his own successful writing career. A little encouragement can go a long way.

We’re always looking for more writers –both experienced AND aspiring wishing to hone their craft. Our global community loves to receive actionable inspiration for a better life and a better world. All things considered, we simply publish “good stuff”. Stuff that’s timeless. Maybe it’s a poem. Maybe it’s a story. Maybe it’s fact. Maybe it’s fiction. Maybe it’s a poem. Maybe it’s just 50 words or maybe it’s 2,000 words. Maybe it’s about life. Maybe it’s about culture. Maybe it’s about business. Maybe it’s just something you were inspired to scribble on the back of a napkin this morning. To us, it’s all good stuff worth sharing again and again. So when in doubt, just send it over. But first, learn a little more ABOUT US.

Bring Your Unique Voice & Passion

We share a wide range of topics on our award-winning Site – virtually across the entire life, culture, and business spectrum destined to satisfy the interest of our amazing global community.

You can add value to our existing collection of inspired storytelling by bringing your own unique voice and views, infused with your passion and personality.

You will write if you will write without thinking of the result in terms of a result, but think of the writing in terms of discovery, which is to say that creation must take place between the pen and the paper, not before in a thought or afterwards in a recasting… It will come if it is there and if you will let it come.

–Gertrude Stein

We encourage all of our Contributors to “write from your heart”, based on personal experience and/or professional expertise, and to please “write as if you’re talking to a friend”. The more down-to-earth the better. People love to feel like they’re reading something written by a real person, with real experience in life, and a genuine heart.

20 CONVERSATIONS

  1. This is an amazing website which gives so many who want to write and then go for it, the opportunity to do so. Dennis and Ali, Bizcatalyst360 has made an impact on my joy to write what I feel. Thank you both. I have three projects waiting in the wings, in the world of storytelling, and although I have not written one lately, I know where to go when I do!

  2. A magnificent read your post is, Dennis.

    Loved the hotel busboy story. The butterfly effect of small acts of encouragement is well proven in this story.

    It is interesting for me to read the quote you shared “You will write if you will write without thinking of the result in terms of a result, but think of the writing in terms of discovery…” by Gertrude Stein/
    This is the theme of the post that I submitted to you today on “The pH Meter of Thinking”.
    I am glad that my thinking is close to yours.

  3. There is no other platform so inclusive, stimulating, available where it is possible to freely share thoughts, impressions, stories, aspirations, reflections with so many talented people. You feel a greater satisfaction than that which can be found in publishing a book: here you have real-time contact.
    Dennis has done, and continues to do, an amazing job.

  4. I am amazed at Larry’s story’s and others. There are so many talented writers here and I am in awe to be part of such a wonderful platform. I really feel at home here. My gratitude to Dennis Pitocco for accepting me as a featured cintributer and Larry for having faith in me and my writing. Its a wonderful place to share and grow.

  5. I will repeat this: One day many years ago a man named Dennis Pitocco asked me to write a story for his group. He opened up a wellspring of stories that have never stopped. He opened the door to possibilities and changed my life and awakened my stories. Thank you, my dear friend.

  6. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to write for Bizcatalyst360 so many tears ago. I had aspirations toward my own byline, but reality has a way of showing up.

    It seems like you have scores of writers with limitless potential to fill pages of the website. I appreciate being tagged when you share articles you know I will like. I fail miserably at interacting these days and I apologize for that.

    Your award winning website is more of an incubator for authors, entrepreneurs, and leaders. Your content appeals to anyone because of the variety. You encourage and inspire and motivate and influence like nobody else on the planet.
