Hi there, I'm Mythopoet. I'm a 30 something wife and mother who loves to read and write fantasy stories. More than anything I love world building and myth making. Tolkien is my spirit writer. I hope to start writing up content about my World-in-Progress called Khthon soon and to support fantasy worlds by other aspiring fantasists here on tumblr.
