i try and read a book a week. i've become super nated right now with time square culture. It's an underworld that is far enough removed from my daily existence to sort of psychologically play about what would it have been like to have lived in that neighborhood when morals were thrown out the window. So, you know, six months from now, i'll be on to something else. But let your curiosity go nuts, know, read about something that you have no connection or use for.
Superhero movies. Bastardized fairy tales. The psychology of celebrity. Star Wars. And yes, some ancient Greek and Roman myths. Professional mythologist and screenwriting consultant John Bucher spins some yarns and unravels some mysteries behind what makes a good story, and why we so desperately need them. Also: rethinking your own life's narrative and gaining a greater appreciation for Elvira. Trust me.
