Project Brainstorm/Research

I have been going over ideas in my head and I know that I want to do a storybook rather than a portfolio. 

1. I might retell the Ramayana in a new, unique way. Don't ask me what that new and/or unique way is because I have no idea yet, but I'm working on it.

2. I am leaning more toward this option: I want to take the deities and mythological creatures found in these epics and create a completely new epic of my own.

3. I have also been thinking about taking some of the women from the various stories and making them the heroes or gender flipping the male leads to make them women. Gender flipping always makes for a fun read and fresh look at an old tale.

4. Last, but most certainly not least I have been thinking about dedicating my storybook to the animals/legendary creatures found in these stories.
