It depends on what you're drawn to. Are you more interested in interpretation of story for your own personal growth? Or interpretation of films? Or are you looking to create stories?
The best books I know on this subject at least on interpretive myth include:
In my experience, after Campbell people usually begin to drift toward what their personal myths are. So you have some people who get really into film and get caught on Vogler or Bonnet's work, others who want to go help returning veterans and end up getting really into Odysseus in America. Or people begin focusing on different cultures and religions and move from there.
God, this is so well summarized. It reminds me of the time I went to NYCC where Rothfuss and a bunch of other creators were fielding questions from the crowd about writing, and maaaaaaaaaan it was cringey. Can't we talk about the man's work for a second?
Op, I think what other people have summarized is good. Personally, I've liked King's On Writing, Sanderson's free lectures, Joseph Cambell's Hero With a Thousand Faces, Bonnet's Stealing Fire From the Gods, and there are just a TON of great books on myth - super important and part of the reason I was a religion minor.
Also, audible has lots of lectures up on storytelling in The Great Courses and they're basically awesome college courses!
