So, you’ve fleshed out your story idea for the first and second act using the Hero’s Journey, and now your story has reached the cusp between the second and third act. And, now, you’re wondering, how to structure the final act of your story using the Hero’s Journey. If this is a situation that you can relate to, then this episode is for you.

What to Expect from this Episode

In this show, I will unpack the final three stages of the Hero’s Journey. Just as a word of warning, I will also be sharing scenes from the film, Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the ring. It goes without saying, spoiler alert.

As I wrote, what I was hoping to be the final instalment in this series, the word count reached 3,700 words which meant the show would reach almost 28 minutes. That length is well above the short length that I promised you in the earlier podcast episodes. I’ve decided to break this final episode into two parts and by default turning this mini-series into four parts. The next part of this series, episode twenty-eight will be released on Monday, April 8. And, the usual behind the Scenes Podcast Diary will be released the following Saturday, April 13.

A Podcast Update

Over the next few weeks, you will notice a few changes in The Authorpreneur Podcast. The first is this episode is the second last show on plot and story structure for season one. Between season one and two, there will be weekly Behind the Scenes podcast Diary episodes. In season two the diary episodes will continue on in a weekly schedule.

On Monday, July 1 the first show of season two will be released. Season two will have a focus on how to outline, and in this season I will break down the components of a story. Closer to the start of season two, I will release an episode that breaks down exactly what you can expect from this second season, in greater detail. To be honest, I’m glad to get a break from the research, write, edit, and record cycle and focus on the new chat style format of the Behind the Scenes Podcast Diary. A lot of effort goes into creating a show like the one you are currently listening to, but, I digress.

After you’ve listened to this episode come on over to the show notes at authorpreneurpodcast.com/episode-027/ and let me know by sharing in the comments section, a tip you’ve learned from the episode or ask a question if you’re stuck with structuring a story using the hero’s journey, or tweet me at WriterADHay.
