Consider The Writers Journey by Christopher Vogler. Recommended by 5 sources.
“The Writers Journey hands you a repeatable map of stages and archetypal roles that many writers use to plot or reshape stories. Chapters are concise and practical, followed by film and prose examples that show the beats in action. What works best is a usable set of plotting tools you can apply while drafting; the main limitation is a prescriptive tone and repeated examples that can feel dated or formulaic. Not a hands-on workbook — more reference than exercises.”
