I'm Evan Cave, an English Subject Matter major at CSUN. Given my choice in degree, it shouldn't be shocking that literature is one of my biggest passions. I love reading and dissecting media significantly more than creating it, but this project was a fun challenge.
I've been obsessed with mythology since a very young age. In middle school, I actually competed in a Greek mythology competition and got second place. First place went to my school's only Greek kid, and he literally bragged about his parents performing myths as bedtime stories... So I basically got first place if you think about it.
This project was partially inspired by The Epic of Gilgamesh, which made me cry when I first read it. Its story content and context as the world's oldest novel moved me deeply. My website will factually never reach that level of sentimentality and significance; however, there's something beautiful about creating while not knowing what of it will survive.
Thank you for reading!
