“It used to be that you’d swap books, talk fandoms, and laugh yourselves silly,” says Dominic de Souza, founder of LegendHaven. But now, the world feels like it’s burnt out on outrage.
Dominic de Souza is an author, dad, and founder, who believes we need better stories to build a better world.
Fandoms, once campfires for kids with flashlights under blankets, have became battlegrounds. “One clumsy thing,” writes de Souza, “and you’re the Sauron of the week. We’re done with the witch hunts, and heading back to Hogwarts."
“Good stories make us wise and brave, and help us discover and experience our deepest longings. Stories are how our soul survives.”
LegendHaven is a project of his community, LegendFiction, where faith-inspired storytellers gather to revive meaning, morals, myth, and magic, in a world starved for better stories.
