Black & White Magic for Surviving Extreme Anxiety
Originally published in Fiddler's Green 1
A Fiddler's Green Leaflet by Clint Marsh & Alexis Berger
In antiquity the wild places of the world were menaced by the dreaded “king of all reptiles,” the basilisk, a creature so vile that it could turn brave heroes to stone with a mere look. Today we face the basilisk every time we are gripped with anxiety so strong it stops us in our tracks.
Through a look at nine time-honored defenses against the basilisk, this booklet will help you find the best ways to fend off this perilous monster’s petrifying gaze.
Clint Marsh uses elements of myth, magic, folklore, and humor to help people navigate everyday life. He is the editor of Fiddler's Green Peculiar Parish Magazine and a winner of the Bookseller/Diagram Prize.
