​The Hero’s Journey, aka classic story structure, is a writer’s survival kit, providing all that is vital to brilliant storytelling in a few key stages. Does your central character, hero or heroine, have a reason to leave their ordinary, everyday world and go on a journey into the unknown, and does each stage of their journey draw your reader more deeply into the narrative? The journey might be to the ends of the earth or just to the garden shed, but if you, the author, know the way, your story will grip readers from first page to last.
The hero’s journey is, arguably, the pattern that all narratives naturally take; it is a check-list for your survival kit and a rescue plan in the event of road-blocks. It is the way the very best tales have been told since written storytelling began, and how bestsellers get written!

Wednesdays, 2pm – 4pm
26 February – 1 April 2020
Belconnen Arts Centre, Canberra, Australia

This course is for writers of all abilities and experience and for those interested in fiction and non-fiction alike. What does it mean to ‘have a voice’ as a writer? Voice is something deeply personal, impossible to fake and almost as difficult to define. Voice is more than the expression of an opinion or an attitude, it is each individual writer’s most powerful tool for channelling ideas.
