So I'm thinking about doing a Greek Mythology series where I discuss the various gods and goddesses and other aspects of mythology. I love this subject and it's something I'm very passionate about. I'm actually toying with the idea of writing books about it. I was thinking of a nonfiction collection with the gods, goddesses, titans, lesser gods, and creatures as well as a fiction series. I think what Rick Riordan has done with Percy Jackson is amazing and I know it has sparked interest in a lot of young people about mythology. I also love Aimee Carter's The Goddess Test trilogy. It is a whole new perspective on the gods/goddesses and mainly on the myth of Hades & Persephone.
Here is how I'm thinking of outlining it:
- The Beginning - The Elder Titans
- Cronus & Rhea
- Zeus Rebels Against Cronus
- Olympian Series
- Zeus
- Hera
- Poseidon
- Hestia
- Hades
- Demeter
- Aphrodite
- Ares
- Hephaestus
- Apollo
- Artemis
- Athena
- Hermes
- Dionysus
- Persephone
- Lesser Gods
- Eros
- Helios
- Selene
- Aurora
- Nymphs
- Pan
- The Fates
- The 9 Muses
- Creatures
- Minotaur
- Centaur
- Cerberus
- Medusa
- 2nd Generation of Titans
- Jason
- Atlas
- Prometheus
- Hercules
I'm thinking of including famous myths in each post, or maybe doing a second post for the myths...I haven't really figured it out yet. I'm just obsessed with this topic and honestly my obsessions are why I even blog so this just makes sense.
So here is to hoping that you'll join me on this Greek adventure!!!
