Two books, The Writer's Journey by Christopher Vogler and Myths to Live By by Joseph Campbell, on a desk covered with hand-written notes

I read a book titled The Writer’s Journey: Mythic Structure for Storytellers & Screenwriters by Christopher Vogler. Remarkable in its common anatomy of story a la The Story Grid by Shawn Coyne, yet Vogler’s book, with its Joseph Campbell mythic structures and Carl Jung archetypes? Totally up my alley. For better or worse, ideas and possibilities are careening and exploding in my brain. I’m on my very own hero’s journey.
