Theme!

Greeks myths . . . love them, don't you? You are to take a well known greek myth or conflict, such as Pandora's story or the confilict between Hera and Hercules, and twist it ever so slightly. I don't want just another retelling, I want you to change a key element of the myth while staying true to the original story. In other words, anything goes, as long as its plausible. Good luck to you and HAVE FUN!

2006-06-28 [RiddleRose]: what happens if two people accidentally use the same myth? is that all right?

2006-06-29 [Kaimee]: I assume the stories will be rather different anyways :P

2006-07-01 [RiddleRose]: so i started mine... but i'm going to be gone until august 7 or thereabouts... is it at all possible to hold off the deadline 'til after that? *hope hope*

2006-07-03 [Today for you, tomorrow for me]: Yeah. Right now there really is no deadline, so that one be a problem

2006-09-06 [RiddleRose]: it's going well! but now school has started, so i will have a bit more limited writing time. i shall do my best!

2007-02-02 [RiddleRose]: got a great outline...

2007-07-14 [Kuzco]: Got in an entry. Don't know if it counts but it was the story I wanted to work in.
Also, sorry it's in rhyming fashion, if I do it prose I'd definitely go over the word limit.
Cheers.
