SUMMARY:
Vogler discusses how refusal of the call to adventure can be very diastrious. Many o the times the hero is scared, and trys to find excuses. Also he talks about how the refusal can sometimes be a positive notion. Then Vogler goes on to discuss meeting with a mentor. What a mentor usually does and how a mentor can be different kinds of people and help in so many different ways.
REFLECTION: I think this is very helpful to know while writing because sometimes if their is no refusal then it almost seems to easy and unrealistic to the reader. People want to be able to connect with the characters and if the character never refuses and is never scared they almost seem unhuman like.
QUESTIONS:
Have you ever refused a call to adventure? If so how would your life me different if you accepted it?
Have you accepted a call to adventure you wished you had refused?
Should every story have some kind of mentor to guide the hero?

i think that each story or movie should have a mentor to guide the hero because it makes the story more interesting. In real life I don't think every one needs a hero for every situation because sometimes the mentor could just be your conscience.
