WritingDude Posted June 5, 2016 Report Posted June 5, 2016 Synopsis: A teenage girl discovers that she's a descendent of the Greek hero, Perseus and is chosen to be the hero of a prophecy; which states, after Perseus died, he will respawn in a new vessel during the last days of the gods. Upon discovering this, she begins her training to be the hero Olympus needs her to be, for there are many foes that would take advantage of the gods' weariness. Please be honest and critical if necessary. Quote
GeorgeGlass Posted June 6, 2016 Report Posted June 6, 2016 That sounds pretty interesting to me. I'm curious to know who her foe(s) would be. Quote
WritingDude Posted June 10, 2016 Author Report Posted June 10, 2016 I came up with this story out of spite for Percy Jackson and the Olympians. A modern turn on Greek mythology and in my opinion Percy Jackson failed to do it justice (both as a book and a film). Quote
GeorgeGlass Posted June 12, 2016 Report Posted June 12, 2016 I was thinking that I liked your idea better than the premise of the Percy Jackson books, but I didn't say so because I'm trying to cut back on my snark. Quote
WritingDude Posted June 13, 2016 Author Report Posted June 13, 2016 I initially wrote a series of short stories with this premise; however even after rewriting them, they still felt rushed and too reliant on action. Advice? Quote
