At the beginning of his career, Joseph Campbell developed a lasting fascination with the cultures of the Far East, and explorations of Buddhist and Hindu philosophy later became recurring motifs in his vast body of work. However, Campbell had to wait until middle age to visit the lands that inspired him so deeply. In 1954, he took a sabbatical from his teaching position and embarked on a year-long voyage through India, Thailand, Cambodia, Burma, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and finally Japan.

How do master storytellers compel us? There have been many attempts to understand what makes a good story, but few have used a scientific approach. In The Science of Storytelling, Will Storr applies dazzling psychological research and cutting-edge neuroscience to our myths and archetypes to show how we can tell better stories, revealing, among other things, how storytellers - and also our brains - create worlds by being attuned to moments of unexpected change.

I found it extremely basic, general, and padded
This review is my personal opinion and feelings not a statement of fact. This audio book reminds me of school where you have to write a ten page paper but don't put much effort into it so you padded it with a bunch of unnecessary information and words. I found so much of this to be extremely basic and common sense. I don't think there is any good information that I couldn't have found for free doing a basic search online. I think I could have written this book myself and came to the same general conclusions. I also found it so boring, I had to stop it several times because it was putting me to sleep. I also feel like the book is poor quality and if it is any indication of the author's ability to write then I don't want to purchase any of their stories. I wish I could get my money back. My advice would be to look elsewhere for help on writing short stories.

Do not buy this!!!
Horrible book on writing short stories. The authors cover only the most basic and obvious advice (wanna improve your dialogue? Read it out loud! Wanna write a good ending? Tie your lose ends - wow, who would've thought?)
There is ONE chapter on making money... and it's about self publishing, growing an email list and being active on social media? Really? What sage advice!
The authors also keep name-dropping their book, and that's when you understand what this book here is about: driving the sales of their other projects, not really teaching you anything. Seriously, there are many better books out there (go read Stein on Writing). This one is not worth the money.
