L. J. Kendall is an Australian author who failed to drown on five separate occasions on Sydney's northern beaches. He worked in software R&D and communication, and had a long happy marriage to an adventurous mediaeval scholar 22 years his senior.

He believes honesty is the best policy, most people are good and kind, and, with luck, you get out of life what you put in. He writes and enjoys believable sci fi and fantasy where the characters drive the plot. He loves quirky outsiders, and after over 10,000 hours of roleplaying – opposing everything from cosmic horrors, to time-looped cannibal space-Nazis, to evil megacorporations – he reckons he’d be helpful in a zombie apocalypse.

The Heroine’s Journey

I think many people are familiar with the idea of “The Hero’s Journey” (by Joseph Campbell), but what about “The Heroine’s Journey”?

If I ever heard of it, I assumed the phrase simply meant the Hero’s Journey applied equally well to women.

Maureen Murdock, a student of Campbell, came to believe it did not. She developed a model of a heroine’s journey based on her work with women in therapy. But whe

Mangalam Shiva EMPTY FISTS BY MANGALAM SHIVA.
Dear Friend,
How are you? I am glad to note that some of my friends have already read my book and have posted their comments in Goodreads. I got great inspiration & encouragement from their reviews. Some of my friends have marked my book as to read. I am sure the other friends have already committed to read other books and will decide to read my book in a few days.
The stories revolve around situations, characters and messages pertaining to India. It is possible some of my friends in the other countries may find the stories intriguing. If at any time of reading, my friends need any elaborations, it will be my pleasure to share my ideas with them. Such discussions with readers will delight me immensely. Wishing you all the best, MANGALAM SHIVA.
