The villain is the hero of his own story - and is every bit as important as the heroic characters. This book contains the lectures and exercises from Tami Cowden's popular online class on villain archetypes. The workshop identifies and examines the motivations of the 16 literary villain archetypes, and shows what happens when heroes and heroines turn to the dark side. Here's what participants have said about the workshop: -I really enjoyed this class. Seeing these archetypes spelled out like this really gives perspective instinct does not. -Not only did this give me some really good tips on villain archetypes, but seeing the thought process behind creating a character for the archetypes helped me with your hero/heroine archetypes as well. -WONDERFUL class, again!!! It was quite a thrill figuring out which archetype matched up with the villianess of my WIP: ) . I have your exclamation about motivation stuck to my wall, just as a reminder. --I did get a chance to apply this to my characters. I put a lot more thought into my characters' motivations and I think I will have a stronger book for it. The workshop really helped me make a more consistant characters and to work through how my characters act. -I'm having trouble getting a handle on my villain in my next book, and these archetypes are really helping me. -The exercises were enlightening as well as a fun way to get into the heads of these characters. - You have given me good ideas for use in my current WIP and I'm certain I'll be using some of the others archetypes in future works.

Arthur E. Waite and artist Pamela Colman Smith's Rider-Waite Tarot (1909) is the most popular Tarot in the world. Today, it is affectionately referred to as the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot in recognition of the high quality of Smith's contributions. Waite and Smith's deck has become the gold standard for identifying and analyzing contemporary Tarot and other meditation decks based on archetypes. Developments in both visual and literary history and theory have influenced Tarot since its fifteenth-century invention as a game and subsequent adaptations for esotericism, cartomancy, and meditation. This analysis consider Tarot in relation to established modern and postmodern art movements, such as Symbolism, Surrealism, and Pattern and Decoration Art, as well as the concepts and theories informing both the dominance and the dissolution of the modernist "grid" and hierarchical priorities. This work also explores the close connection between Tarot and the invention of the literary novel and includes new material on the representation of Tarot in film and fiction. A new chapter addresses the growing influence of the archetypal "shadow" and "shadow work" on Tarot as an artistic form, narrative genre, and practice in the new millennium.

“On point” is a military term used to designate the infantryman who will lead patrol, the riskiest of all positions. Writing is risky business, too. For the veteran suffering from post-traumatic stress, writing can trigger painful and disturbing flashbacks. But writing is also risky for the ego. It's one thing to write a military story, especially a story based on authentic experiences; it is quite another to muster the courage to share that story with others for critique and feedback. In On Point, Tracy Crow, an award-winning military journalist, former Marine Corps officer, college writing professor, military novelist, memoirist, and editor, presents a roadmap for writing an authentic military story. Drawing from her personal experiences and those of other veteran writers, and from the insights of noteworthy writing and teaching professionals,On Point is the guide Crow wished she'd had when she first began writing about her military experience. While writing guidebooks abound, no book specifically addresses the unique challenges and rewards facing soldiers who risk reliving their personal traumas to craft a military story drawn with courage and candor. On Point is a guide for any writer who wishes to tell an authentic military story, developed especially for veterans and their families for whom writing may serve as a form of healing.
