About this Blog

This blog is inspired by the book Mythologies by literary critic Roland Barthes.


The illustrations are by me, unless otherwise noted. My friend Adam Caldwell is teaching me how to draw, so my illustrations are not always that great, but I'm learning.


If you like this blog, you might also enjoy my serial novel, Hold This Pose.
