Today, I was sluggish in writing about the outsider. Luckily, I had a book On Belonging by Kim Samuel, which devotes a chapter to the Hero's Journey. I get that aha moment, that the HJ is about leaving safety for change, that social isolation is a feeling. It coincides with needing to select my books for Fantasy. So in Fantasy, the HJ shows us we are not alone, even when going to Mordor.
I then went to my Labrynth writing, to also mention how Sarah's lonliness was through gaslighting
Then I went into domestic violence writing and I was on a roll!
