question:
Hi Kaden!
I love that Rick Riordan has introduced a whole generation of young people to Greek myths. Of course, I hope they all grow up to read my books, too! I don't know Rick personally, however, so I've never been given the opportunity to work with See Full Answer |

“I am no longer scared of being a woman — it doesn’t make me any less a man. I am both. I am neither. I am only myself.”
― The Wolf in the Whale

“Our definition of ‘myth’ in common parlance: a widely believed, but false story. That’s the definition Anant so helpfully illustrated. But that’s not how the Greeks defined it.” Theo turned to the whiteboard behind him and scrawled “μῦθος: muthos” in large blue letters. “Muthos just means ‘story.’ No connotation of fictitiousness. The Greeks didn’t question whether Persephone had actually been abducted by Hades, or whether Artemis truly turned the hunter Acteon into a stag. On one level, they understood that these stories certainly weren’t meant to be taken literally, but on another level they believed that the stories held ultimate truth. Ways to understand their society, their own behavior, their relationship and duties to the gods. That’s something that fundamentalists in our own day have trouble grasping.”
