This essay was published in the first online issue of the magazine, Inroads, Creativity, Men, Soul on April 1, 2026. The original Inroads Magazine existed in the late 80s and the early 90s and was published by Anthony Signorelli with contributing editors Jonathan Stensland, John Lang and Thomas R. Smith. These magazines featured essays by James Hillman and poetry by Robert Bly and other men affiliated with or influenced by the Minnesota Men's Conferences Bly began in the early 80s. A few of my essays and poems also appeared there.
