Personalized coaching, publishing, and storytelling experiences that bring clarity, confidence, and connection.

Hi, I’m Jason Cannon.

I’m a storycoach, playwright, podcaster, author, publisher, and founder of Cannon Story Company.

I help memoirists, playwrights, speakers, and truth-tellers shape their stories and share them with the world—through one-on-one coaching, publishing through Ibis Books, podcasts, workshops, and live speaking engagements.

Craft your story. Share your truth.

  • You will not find a better person for all things literary than Jason. He's reviewed a handful of my books now and each time he gives me brilliant and detailed ideas on how to improve my work. If you hire him you can feel absolutely confident he'll guide you from beginning to end whatever your project may be. I am overwhelmingly impressed by how in-depth and thorough his thoughts were. Much, much appreciated!

  • Jason was a pleasure to work with. Fun, professional, talented and reliable. He has supported me with various writing projects and supported dramatic elements of my keynote. He brought both his writers hat, and director and actors hat and was invaluable to my team. I will continue to work with him.

  • Jason has a deft talent for bringing out the best in both the actor and writer. Anyone working with Jason can expect a high quality of attention to detail. It was in Jason’s class that I began a head-over-heels love affair with the lost art of spoken word. I turned that new passion into a One-Woman show that debuted in NYC in the Fall of 2021.  They say anything can happen in NYC, but it all started in Jason’s class in SRQ!
