Description:
The Hero's Journey. It's not called the monomyth for nothing. Despite its popularity, it's certainly not the only storytelling framework available to us. In this session, we'll heed the call of the Heroine's Journey (as envisaged by Gail Carriger, Maureen Murdock, and Kim Hudson) to illuminate a different sort of path through the darkness of a story's beginning, middle, and end.
Who will love it?
Relevant to writers of all stripes, but particularly authors whose stories have never seemed to fit neatly into the mold of the Hero's Journey. Romance and genre writers may find this topic particularly enlightening.
Intended audience:
Writers of every skill level
