What Is the Hero's Journey? Breaking it Down for New Writers
Dec 08, 2022 Season 1 Episode 111
Kaitlin Greco

In today's episode, I give a very basic and high-level description of the Hero's Journey by Joseph Campbell. I illustrate the Hero's Journey with an example from Harry Potter and also a fictional romance novel. 

I created the Turn Write Podcast for beginning writers, indie authors, for people who are looking for their voice and who want to know how to use it. The idea for this bite-sized podcast came to me as I sat in endless traffic commuting an hour each way to and from my 9-5 job, wondering why do I write? Why do I rush home every day with the agonizing hope of trying to string together meaningless words to create a feeling deeper than I could dare hope to describe? Well, day after day I kept thinking and there was only one answer: I loved to write. I am on a journey to becoming a published author, and I want to help you get there too.
