Julia Cameron 

  Regarded now as a classic in the field, this much-read book has been a bestseller around the world.  With the basic principle that creative expression is the natural direction of life, it leads you through a comprehensive 12-week program to recover your creativity from a variety of blocks, including limiting beliefs, fear, self-sabotage, jealousy, guilt, addictions and other inhibiting forces, replacing them with artistic confidence and productivity.

This book links creativity to spirituality by showing how to connect with the creative energies of the universe, and has spawned a remarkable number of support groups for artists dedicated to practising the exercises it contains.

 

 

The Writer’s Journey: Mythic Structures for Storytellers and Scriptwriters

 
Christopher Vogler
Pan 

An updated edition of this book which is a distillation of Joseph Campbell's theories about the hero’s journey: that myth and storytelling present a definable framework that renders a narrative instructive and psychologically true.

Vogler has developed a 12-stage cycle which he believes is inherent in all good drama if manipulated to fit the writer's intent and in this book he applies it to many well-known films.  If you favour this Jungian approach, the twelve point plan can help to provide a good story structure.
