Tired of the hero's journey? Frustrated that funny, romantic, and comforting stories aren't taken seriously? Sad that the books and movies you love never seem to be critically acclaimed, even when they sell like crazy? The heroine's journey is here to help. Multiple New York Times bestselling author Gail Carriger presents a clear concise analysis of the heroine's journey, how it differs from the hero's journey, and how you can use it to improve your writing and your life. In this book you'll learn: * How to spot the heroine's journey in popular books, movies, and the world around you. * The source myths and basic characters, tropes, and archetypes of this narrative. * A step-by-step break down of how to successfully write this journey. What do Agatha Christie, JK Rowling, and Nora Roberts all have in common? They all write the heroine's journey. Read this book to learn all about it. From Harry Potter to Twilight, from Wonder Woman to Star Wars, you'll never look at pop culture the same way again. With over a dozen NYT and USA Today bestsellers, and over a million books in print, popular genre author and former archaeologist Gail Carriger brings her cheeky comedic tone and over a decade of making her living as a fiction author to this fascinating look at one of the most popular yet neglected narratives of our time. The presentation she does on this subject sells for hundreds of dollars. "I'm not sure how you can just rewire my brain to see the heroine's journey like this and then expect me to make coherent, thought-out comments about the text when all I want to do is hold it in my twisted little grip while I shove it at people screaming like a madman and pointing at passages." ~ Author Beta Reader Gail Carriger uses the heroine's journey to produce bestselling, critically-acclaimed books that genre blend science fiction, cozy mystery, young adult, urban fantasy, romance, historical fiction, and alternate history. In this non-fiction book she uses her academic background and creative writing skills to bring to life the archetypes, tropes, story beats, themes, and messages inherent in the heroine's journey. Part treatise on authorship, part feminist literary criticism, part how to write guide, Carriger uses mythology, legend, and Gothic victorian 19th century literature to explore movies, screenwriting, books, and audience desires. This is an excellent reference guide for genre fiction authors seeking to improve their craft or for readers and pop culture enthusiasts interested in understanding their own taste. It is the perfect counterpoint to The Hero with a Thousand Faces not to mention Save the Cat, Women Who Run With The Wolves, and The Breakout Novelist.

It's not that I hadn't heard of the Heroine's Journey before--I had. I'm a writer who's penned 50+ novels, many of them romance, the rest some flavor of SF, and I'm very familiar with the Hero's Journey (have taken workshops focused on it in addition to self study). I'm also a feminist, so I was always somewhat uncomfortable with it and loved the IDEA of the Heroine's Journey, but never found a satisfying explanation for how it worked.This is that satisfying explanation. More, this brings both Hero and Heroine into balance.It helps that I've been exploring hopepunk as well, looking for a new way of storytelling that was less violence-based, more cooperatively focused. Hopepunk is that ethos--it's weaponized compassion, consciously choosing gentleness, audacious hope. But that's themes, characters, and aesthetic. The Heroine's Journey is the plot (and characters as well). So it's a beautiful marriage of ideas that not only gives a more complete toolkit for the Heroine's Journey, this book also shows by compare-and-contrast how the Hero and Heroine's journeys are in tension, but ultimately complementary.Highly recommend this for any writer, no matter your genre, because understanding these fundamentals will unlock your ability to understand the very stories you are telling.
