The Heroine's Journey (Carriger 2020)
If you're tired of The Hero's Journey and want to flip your story upside down, I highly recommend Gail Carriger's book The Heroine's Journey to use alongside this spread. I found this idea so fascinating. The Hero's Journey is violent, masculine, and main character vs villain energy. The Heroine's Journey, while still potentially violent, to me, explores more of the aspect of community growth, support, and forgiveness.
BACK BLURB:What is the heroine’s journey? How is it different from the hero’s journey? What makes Harry Potter different from Star Wars? Twilight from Wonder Woman?New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Gail Carriger uses her comedic style to explore the mythological foundation of one of the most joyful and powerful narrative structures we have access to as storytellers. She teaches you to identify, write, and utilize the heroine’s journey to recover from writer’s block.
