Mark your calendar for a full day workshop with Mary Buckham! The topic will be: Plotting With The Mythic Structure: Creating Surefire Plots that Sell
 
Before Christopher Vogler's ground-breaking book - The Hero's Journey - many writers were unable to see the connections between their commercial fiction and the universal power of ancient myths and legends. Now, with a clearer understanding of how to incorporate archetypes, the twelve steps of the hero's (heroine's) journey, and plot points, writers can create solid plots and surefire structures that sell. You won't want to miss this workshop.
