really liked it

Often meandering and going off-tangent, occasionally difficult to read and comprehend, this essay nonetheless well encompasses the appeal, the allure, and the need for telling tales and myths - how they are a part of us all and belong to us all.

Every aspiring author should read this. Hell, a lot of actual authors might want to.
