7 Basic Plots - #3 "The Quest"

Sep 08, 2022

As we continue with Christopher Booker’s The 7 Basic Plots book, “The Quest” is the third “story shape”, lending itself to some of the most epic stories of all time. 

Homer’s Odyssey, Moby Dick, Lord of the Rings (kind of). 

We all cheer when the hero sets out to get the prize, destroy the ring, achieve the dream—but what are the lessons learned along the way? 

What are the patterns we can implement into our Presentation Thinking world? 

Is The Goonies a “Quest” kind of story?? 

Time to set out on our own Quest journey and find out.
