“The Barbizon Diaries: A Meditation on Will, Purpose, and The Value Of Stories<\/strong> \u2013 \u201cMythologies are huge, sweeping things. And the grandest stories are those with the widest arcs of triumph and despair. As much as we may want to, we may not be able to avoid the despair \u2013 but triumph is a matter of will. DRAWING OUT THE DRAGONS was written for everyone, but this book is an advanced course in surviving the Refiner\u2019s fire \u2013 because some stories are too important not to share, and some stories are too meaningful to hide. \u2013 James\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
