THE WRITER'S JOURNEY ~ THIRD EDITION
Christopher Vogler
T h e Hero's Journey is a pattern that seems to extend in many dimensions,
describing more than one reality. It accurately describes, among other things, the
process o f making a journey, the necessary working parts of a story, the joys and
despairs of being a writer, and the passage of a soul through life.
A book that explores such a pattern naturally partakes of this multi—dimen
sional quality. The Writer's Journey was intended as a practical guidebook for writers,
but can also be read as a guide to the life lessons that have been carefully built into
the stories of all times. Some people have even used it as a kind of travel guide,
predicting the inevitable ups and downs of making a physical journey.
