  • Episode 47: The Heroine's Labyrinth with Douglas A. Burton
    Jun 24 2024
    Matt and James welcome author Douglas A. Burton to discuss his new book The Heroine's Labyrinth! Matt blurbed it and said "The Heroine's Labyrinth is filled with profound and unique observations on the topic of story structure, no matter what the gender of your protagonist. Burton closely analyzes a wide breadth of stories and proves his thesis that Joseph Campbell missed half the story." James agrees and we dive into some of Douglas's many interesting new archetypes!

Bird is right.

I think calling the protagonist's first try to solve the conflict "the easy way" is meant as a mnemonic for remembering their first attempt is not the best. It's short, it's catchy, it's enough to trigger your memory. Kennedy insists on nitpicking this name without making any contribution other than derailing the conversation. I wish Bird spoke more.
