@JesusSucksHorseCock I read Inside Story and Story, the one from McKee, but I think I prefer John Truby and Christopher Vogler. Their aproche is more practical.

I agree great stuff - my stories have all the fundamental elements but with a few twists to the order....now I'm more inspired!!!

Great description of "The Hero-"
-
@pdonnett Give a look at "Inside Story: The Power of the Transformational Arc" by Dr. Dara Marks. I would rate it every bit as good as McKee.

Here's a link to the audiobook with Mr. Vogler and Michael Hauge speaking about the THE HERO'S 2 JOURNEYS (internal and external):

Thanks, Chris, great breakdown of the book.

Totally agree with you. McKee and Vogler are vital.
As a writer of nearly 30 years, I've found that there's no one who does a better job of elaborating the fundamentals of story than Joseph Campbell. And there's no one that does a better job of simplifying and turning Campbell into a practical how-to guide than Robert McKee ("Story") and Chris Vogler ("Writer's Journey"). Don't waste your time wondering and wandering through your bookstore for the "right" writer's guide. Vogler and McKee are THE must-haves.
