Do you like fantasy style myths? Do you enjoy thinking about big ideas using mythological language? Then Stories I Found is for you! First, it takes the compilation of fantasy myths I am currently writing (The Siblings, the Couple, and the City) and serializes it, so you get a fresh short story snippet every two weeks in an easily digestible chunk. Second, each section will explore a verity of ideas using mythological language. For example, ever wondered how modern American culture might tell a creation myth? Or perhaps how someone might mythologies the experience of dating in the internet age? I have! These topics and many more are things that I approach in the Stories I found. You will also get a look into what I am working on, how I approach writing, and each news letter will contain a fun something extra for people to enjoy. So, if you want an epic fantasy tale of gods and heroes presented in digestible pieces every two weeks that takes on interesting topics using mythological language, this is the place for you!
