So… the Patheos account is finally up. And public. I suspect (and kind of hope) that at least a few people have been waiting for that. If you want to check it out, let me drop the link to that right now. Here’s a spoiler: I talked about spooky dogs with metal paws who like to stand on people. Yep. If that sounds fun, then just click on that link.

Unfortunately this post won’t feature a story like the ones have. Instead I want to use this opportunity to ask: what sort of myths would you like to hear about? Do you prefer monsters, or gods? Personally I like covering monsters more than covering deities. But that’s a personal preference. I want to hear from you all, especially because I actually want to do 2 Mythology Monday’s a week. This week is going to be a bit of a break for me, but even with that “break” I still did a Mythology Monday. In the future I might choose between alternating the seriousness and length of the two posts, writing two a week but having one be significantly longer and more serious than the other, probably doing a “serious” one on Patheos one week, and than having the next serious one be on FreeThought Blogs. I still have no intention of slacking off on either site, and will likely write a series of Mythology Monday’s at a time, and then just post them over the course of a few weeks. I suspect that might be the best possible plan for me personally. But I really want to know what you think.

If you’re interested some examples of “serious” vs “silly” Mythology Monday’s might be Elal (I tried at least, but given the videos I found it might not exactly look that way) vs. Cocollona. It’s partially decided upon by the relative importance of the specific mythological figures being discussed, which is why when I cover creation myths I tend to be more serious (as in more academic), vs when I cover specific monsters which have appeared throughout the oral tales of various groups of people.

Basically: I really want to know what you think, and how you feel. I am going to continue Mythology Monday’s because not many people talk about Latin American myths, legends, and spooky or fantastic tales, especially in English no matter what, but right now is a good chance for you to give me your input! I’d love to learn how you feel about what I write. I hope you had a great weekend, and are ready for work (and was ready for work today)!
