The Heroo's Journey
So, this American mythological expert went around the world analyzing myths and legends and discovered these 12 elements that all enthralling stories have in common. It's dope but it ruined movies for me. Star wars, Lord of the rings, and all epic movies share this whole formula!

Forgive me for sounding like a hipster.
I am glad you are here. However late you are. If you read my book you will see this element. Where are you currently in the cycle Phil? |

Just to make it different. There are also no page numbers. Did you notice? There is a reason for that but I look forward to you attempting to figure out why.

For the first time?

Nope. I've been at a normal setting for as long as I can remember.
|
It ruins a lot of books/movies but it helped with my writing.
|
Ha! So what now? What is next?
|
Maybe have a kid within the next year or so.
The old lady and I finally agreed on both a girl's and a boy's name. |

Discovering all these movies and stories have the same skeleton makes it more predictable and less magical. |

I will rephrase it. Are you seriously planning to have children with this lady? |

The Hero's Jourey The Power of Myth Creative Mythology Myths to Live By The Hero with a Thousand Faces On one hand I can see the disappointment in finding out the 'movie magic' and original scripting is all based on 1 common structure. But on the other hand if you think about it, why do we even have movies and video games and books? Everything had to start from somewhere. In any regard the books are a great read if you're going to do any writing (still entertaining if you don't) I was working on my story/series before I came across Joseph Campbell's work but after reading it I couldn't see any other way to subtitle my series but based off the term Monomyth. (each title after adapting a form of that basic idea) |
