The Writer's Journey - 25th Anniversary Edition: Mythic Structure for Writers

Great content. Easy read. Vogler is a must read

This book has become essential in my daily reading and understanding of writing. There is so much information!! It is so easy to read and imperative to structure and content with all types of writing. It also has a world of knowledge and information regarding Joseph Campbell's fantastic book - "The Hero with A Thousand Faces." While I read THAT book years ago, and while it is impressive, Christopher Vogel distilled all the good stuff into a workable tome! Now I understand what Campbell was getting to. This book is just brilliant. Just buy the book! You will be soooo glad you did!!

This book will tell you everything that you want to know when beginning screenwriting. It is very detailed, easy to read and practical, so it is easy to follow these instructions. It greatly enhanced my ability to write

I love the Hero's Journey and Mythology. This book shows you how to translate that into graet storytelling. My only complaint is that it's a bit repetitive - could be easily condensed to 100 pages. Awesome Narrative techniques (but a bit wordy)

This book is a necessity for any writer. I thought it would be more like reading a textbook but it's more like an engaging adventure story. It's masterfully written and the examples the author uses to explain different ideas are perfect. Highly recommend for any writer looking to up their game. Side note - Wish it was on Kindle so it can be referenced easier. Maybe do that in the future? I wouldn't mind repurchasing on Kindle.

An excellent book and writer should have as a reference in their quests! Highly recommended!

THis is the kind of book i want to keep on my bedside table for a year or so and read every night. TO be read slowly, to absorb all the richness. A book that will never age. A must read for any serious scriptwriter.

This is a great book that I’ve managed to work into my reading stack “backlog.” I started reading it the day it arrived and it’s very well-written and just what I needed for my Writer’s Journey. Aspiring writers and novelists won’t be disappointed; neither will published authors, for that matter ;)

I loved the insights this book provided, very useful to help you understand the inner workings of storytelling in popular culture works.

The timing was respected and the book was what the right one. The cover was not in perfect condition.

"You can't teach writing " but you can learn about it and forget it so it returns in creation as instincts and for that Vogler book is amazingly useful.

Questo libro sviscera bene il viaggio dell’eroe e va molto oltre. I capitoli finali poi presentano una prospettiva inedita, piacevolmente sorprendente. Cose che hai letto in altri ambiti - tanto distanti dalla scrittura di romanzi e dal mondo occidentale - e che non ti aspetteresti proprio di leggere in un libro del genere. Illuminante davvero!

Was soll man dazu schreiben? Pflichtlektüre. Ein Meisterwerk.
