About the Event
In this workshop: We’ve all heard about the Hero’s Journey, but how often do we hear about the Heroine’s Journey, Western culture’s other prominent story structure?
How do you spot the Heroine's Journey in movies, tv shows and books? What are the fundamental myths, characters types, and tropes of this myth? How can writers use this powerful story structure to create stories that readers will love?
New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger provides a break down of what aspects of the heroine’s journey make for compelling narratives and voracious readers, where these elements originate, why they’re successful, and how to write them. She’ll help you take control of story structure by delving behind the scenes for hidden messages and gain insight into under-studied narrative conventions and modern publishing markets.
About the speaker: Gail Carriger has multiple NYT bestsellers and millions of books in print in dozens of different languages.…
