@ Michael K. Eidson I actually have the book.:D It's the next on my stack of books on writing to read.

@ Helen What I need is, a layout of the plot points and common elements of sequels. and or... A write up of the plot points,themes and character for at least two(ideally all) of the media that I've listed as examples of a post Hero's Journey. A link to an such article,essay, would be very...

@ Futhark I'm beginning to think that your right. What I need is, a layout of the plot points and common elements of sequels. Failing that... A write up of the plot points,themes and character for at least two(ideally all) of the media that I've listed as examples of a post Hero's Journey.

@ SergeiMeranov There is nothing wrong with being late to the party. What I'm looking for is a write up on the plot-points/story-structure of the Post Hero's Journey. I know that the story-structure exists because I can see being used as the frame work for sequels to stories where the Hero has...

@ glutton Which of your books has or will have the mecha? Have you come a cross a or several plot structure layout for sequels in your browses of the internet? It might look something like what is depicted here.

@ WooHooMan Did your teacher happen to name that second quest? or present I write up or break down of the steps? It's definitely a form of post Hero's Journey. The one I'm looking for might be a little different or it might not. I've been calling it the Apotheosis Journey, the naming was...

@ glutton When can I play that Jrpg?

@ Brian Scott Allen The whole part about cowardess and bride is from me. There are stories that are more about what a character does than becomes: Indiana Jones,James Bond, maybe Jason Born. While it is afield from what I started this thread to learn about, stories of heroes doing are what...

@ skip.knox Since I'm not interest in failure stories at the moment that leaves me looking into the "apotheosis to godhood", as the model of what does the Hero do after they've won? Do you know of any write up on the steps of the Ascension plot? @ Demesnedenoir Well not power strictly...

"Humans write to figure out how things are." - Varric Tethras, Dragon Age Inquistion. Party banter. Recently I bought a copy of "The Anatomy of Story: 22 Steps to Becoming a Master Storyteller", I haven't finished it do to my reading backlog, I'm slow to finish none fiction. I'm glad that I...

@ FifthView The world itself being the foreshadowing is what I'm trying to do. The ratio of what to give away to the audiance and what to hold back so that it hits with no warning beyond the fact that world works that way, is what I'm trying to find. If I had the right literary term I''d be...

@ FifthView While Convenient-Idiots are useful, however after all these years of consuming stories especially shonen manga. I've just gotten sick of them, a sickness that has only worsened when I realized that the purpose of a Convenient-Idiot is an exposition excuses;one that compromise the...

I asked about view point because I'd been researching the subject, I wanted to find a style that suited what felt most natural to me, instead of trying to force my thought process my Voice into a style that didn't fit, the very popular third person limited. I found third person...

@ FifthView Here's my question how do to that without having a Convenient-Idiot as the protagonist? By Convenient-Idiot I mean characters that are largely ignorant of things that should be common knowledge/sense in their setting, for instance the basics of magic in a setting were magic is a...

I want "environmental foreshadowing" to be my primary avenue for foreshadowing. The idea of giving away story elements before the story would naturally reach them, is something that I don't like. Personally I am beginning think that this teasing out of story beats has left us all spoiled and...
