Myth Takes is a newsletter with irreverent feminist analysis of classics, literature, parenting, and more. From essays on Aeschylus and diapers, to appreciation for the best classics-influenced video games, to investigation into which plurals of “octopus” are acceptable to use, Myth Takes is a place to explore the weird and fascinating intersections between my obsessions, starting with Greek myth.

Were you obsessed with D’Aulaires’ Book of Greek Myths when you were a kid? Or maybe you had a copy but had a healthy and normal appreciation for it, stopped reading it when you grew up, and didn’t turn loving mythology into your entire personality and then your career? Either way, this is the place for you.
