Write You - Hero's Journey (Monomyth) and Story Structure: Writing Great Stories and Screenplays
Selling your home on your own can save you a lot of money, and yet most people still use a realtor. One reason is that realtors actually do have access to marketing tools you don’t generally have.

The Hero's Journey is the template upon which the vast majority of successful stories and Hollywood blockbusters are based upon. In fact, ALL of the Hollywood movies we have deconstructed are based on this template.
Understanding this template is a priority for story or screenwriters.
The Hero's Journey:
a) Attempts to tap into unconscious expectations the audience has regarding what a story is and how it should be told.
b) Gives the writer more structural elements than simply three or four acts, plot points, mid point and so on.

Writing Great Stories and Screenplays: the Four Core Challenges
Most good stories have Four Core Challenges that have to be mapped onto the Hero's Journey.
The Four Core Challenges can be described as: the Outer Challenge, the Inner Challenge, the Romantic Challenge and the Greater Antagonism. In American Beauty (Academy Award Winner Best Film 1999), Lester Burnham's Inner Challenge is to feel good about himself, his Romantic Challenge is Angela, his Outer Challenge is his marriage with Carolyn and the Greater Antagonism is Col. Frank Fitts, US Marine Core.
So where are they conquered? Knowing this helps to effectively outline your story / step outline.
Generally, the Outer Challenge is conquered post the Road of Trials / Road of Transformation (often focused around Trial 3). The Romantic Challenge is the Sword or the Reward that follows it. The Inner Challenge is the Atonement with the Father / Apotheosis / Ultimate Boon. The Greater Antagonism is the Final Conflict that occurs between the Crossing of the Return Threshold and the Master of Two Worlds.
