Which archetype seems easiest to write? Which do you think seems the most difficult? Why? What archetype do you understand the least? Why? What kind of hero's do you like telling stories about?
The Hero's Journey seems easiest to write because it can be shaped into a form that allows the audience to be indulged into the righteous character. This archetype requires the main character to have admirable traits which is relatively restricted to certain characteristics. I think Meeting Ourselves in Shapeshifters is the hardest because it is mostly based upon psychological transformation. This is also the archetype that I understand the least because it involved the concept of animus which I am not very familiar with. I like telling stories of a hero whos status is not completely out of the ordinary. I like to follow along to a story that tells how an ordinary person is and can be a hero too.
