🌟 NEW EPISODE 🌟 This week, we're finally digging into Percy's post-Heroes of Olympus mindset in Percy Jackson's Greek Gods. Where does he stand on each of them now? Which stories make the cut? How is Percy's writing career going?

This week's deep-cut deity: Ananke, primal goddess of inevitability. In some myths, she was the mate of Khronos (time). Together, they entwined around the egg of creation and crushed it, splitting all matter into heaven, earth and sea. It was, you know, inevitable. www.theoi.com/Protogenos/A...
Winged goddess with a staff. Labeled Ananke.

Good first meeting with the PJO writers' room! It's the same team as season two, which is great because they did a fantastic job. Only issue: Becky and I joined via Zoom, and they were having donuts. Now I want donuts. (Yes, I am basically Blackjack.)

About the Podcast Monster Donut is a close reading of the Riordanverse including interviews with the cast and creatives behind the Disney+ series, hosted by Phoebe, a dramaturg and story consultant in the TV/theater industry, and Emily, a writer & classicist with a degree in Greek & Latin. Every two weeks, Phoebe & Emily (along with some occasional special guests) analyze every book, short story, and episode of the Disney+ adaptation. While they chat, Phoebe sketches whatever characters/scenes are speaking to her. Those sketches are posted on our Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok (@PJOPod on all accounts). New episodes every other Tuesday! PJO Podcast Monster Donut Cover Art

Hello everyone. Safe in Los Angeles after a temporary evacuation from the Sunset fire. My family in Pasadena is safe but their community has been through total devastation. I'm sharing gofundmes on this thread for families connected with ours where you can donate if you are able. Thank you 💙
