This month’s topic: Mythopoesis and Personal Myth

Mythopoesis is myth creation. As we go through our lives, we are writing another segment of our own personal myth. This month, we will discuss the various paths this process can take and some of the guiding myths passed down through the ages. Feel free to share a personal story or experience that has served a part in your own personal mythopoesis.

We will meet at Book People as usual, but please note the new time:
August 30, 2008
2:30pm-5:30pm
Book People Cafe
603 N Lamar
Austin, TX 78703

Please RSVP by the morning of August 30th. Guests are welcome. I look forward to seeing you there!
