Lauren talks about the hero’s journey as a story structure and how you can use it to support your life story writing.
During this session, you will…
- learn what is the hero’s journey and what is a hero?
- see how the hero’s journey structure can be used in your own writing
- discover the different stages of the hero’s journey and how this is a familiar and classic way of story-telling
- have journaling questions to help you uncover your own heroic qualities as the hero of your life stories
Here is the handout of the hero’s journey, Using the Hero’s Journey as a Story Structure.
Thank you Lauren. Ha ha ha – I think I am a “Pants-er” too! (Writing by the seat of my pants)
Thank you Jackie Trudeau – Your comment about “Embracing the Detours” -really speaks to me!
Thank you Lisa Marie – Even when we don’t feel like our role is hero-fitting, this structure is a way to follow a plan to put the pieces and parts together into our story drafts.
Thank you Jackie Raymond – for the reminder to keep showing up and receiving inspiration; and your classroom memory Conceive-Achieve-Believe.
Thank you, Kit! I love the hero’s journey for helping us embrace our own stories, and pantsers unite!
