The feminine journey and the masculine journey or the hero’s journey are often combined for breakthrough novels. But the feminine journey, in its profound options and variations, is itself a major fictional structure that is undertaught today.

Each lesson on a segment of the feminine journey as fiction will also include suggestions for understanding the feminine journey’s role in your own life. In turn, that understanding will make the feminine journey a powerful and accessible structure for your work.
