Welcome

The value of the myth is that it takes all the things we know and restores to them the rich significance which has been hidden by ‘the veil of familiarity’. The child enjoys his cold meat (otherwise dull to him) by pretending it is buffalo, just killed with his own bow and arrow. And the child is wise. The real meat comes back to him more savoury for having been dipped in a story; you might say that only then is it the real meat. If you are tired of the real landscape, look at it in a mirror. By putting bread, gold, horse, apple, or the very roads into a myth, we do not retreat from reality: we rediscover it.

Some tips for navigating this website:
- Click everything! Most text that is underlined is a link, most pictures are links, and almost all buttons are links - so click away!
- There are a lot of stories here! In an effort to keep them from becoming overwhelming, I have provided the option of grouping them into categories. To do so, please see "Categories" in the drop-down menu under "Explore."
- This website is bigger than it seems, for every category has its own webpage, every book that is either published or a work-in-progress (WIP) has its own webpage, and every series that has at least one book that is either published or a WIP has its own webpage. Feel free to explore!
