wild creatures who function adequately in society. They are best in disguise. If they lose all their wildness, they cannot
give us the truest joys."

- Ben Okri

  • If you'd like to support my work,
    I now have a Patreon page.
    I still feel a little shy about it,
    so here are the reasons why
    I've taken the leap.

    Please note that Patreon funds
    are for making books and art,
    not for Myth & Moor. This blog
    is a nonprofit endeavor, offered
    in the spirit of gift exchange
    for all who create, study, and
    love Mythic Arts.
