Aaron, Keep up your Updates. I've found them thoughtful and useful. I was unaware of Northrop Frye, but your note led me to get his "Act of Creation, Essays 1979-1990". His projects in literary criticism seem to be a sort of model for the Myth Model which I'm putting out on Substack. I've made Frye my "water closet" book, which means it gets a few minutes reading every day. I think "Act of Creation" is an easier and higher level survey of his thought than the tome you're reading. Also, your discussion about Types made me realized that my "A Tale of Two Times" presents two Types of the Fall of Adam and Eve which are entwined in the narrative action, within the larger theme treated fictionally of how could Satan repent. So keep thinking and writing, as part of your family life.
