The Heroine's Labyrinth: Archetypal Designs in Heroine-Led Fiction

Douglas A. Burton
4.23/5 (46 ratings)
"Douglas Burton has cracked the code"—Christopher Vogler, author of 'The Writer’s Journey: Mythic Structure for Writers'

"[Burton] proves his thesis that Joseph Campbell missed half the story" -Matt Bird, author of 'The Secrets of Story' and 'The Secrets of Character'

The hero’s journey has been the go-to model for story structure for decades. Now, Douglas A. Burton presents a groundbreaking new paradigm for writers. Sourced entirely from heroine-led fiction—the results add new perspectives and strategies to the storytelling landscape. Take a fresh look at the dynamism of story, conflict, character development, archetypes, and heroism in an entirely new light. From myth to literature, from TV to film, The Heroine’s Labyrinth explores the recurrent themes and patterns modeled by heroic women in fiction.

Inside, you’ll discover 18 archetypal designs that form a distinctive narrative arc, each one rich with profound meaning and secret wisdom. Discover the narrative power of timeless archetypes such as The Masked Minotaur, the Sacred Fire, the Beast as Ally, the Poisoned Apple, and more. Novelists, screenwriters, RPG game/dungeon masters, and memoirists will immediately benefit from the storytelling model of the Heroine’s Labyrinth.
