They sound like really interesting poems. They really seem to show you how history is written by the winners. I'd love to know what the poems are called or if there's a translated version?Alice Fu wrote: ↑11 Oct 2023, 00:52 In China, there are two famous poems written by poets on opposing sides of a war. On one side, the victor of the war wrote a poem about rushing with the wind. On the other side, the war's loser wrote about committing suicide with his girlfriend to escape the pain. I think it might be interesting to take those two poems and create a modern day book about it.

I would personally love to see a modern take on Egyptian mythology. There are so many different great myths that it could become a fantastic series. Or even a modern take on Cleopatra. Ancient Egyptian history is full of magic and mysteries. Someone could make a killing writing a series about the gods and goddess!

True. There is always Hades and Persephone but never Zeus and Hera. Maybe because they are boring old married couple.
