Topic Brainstorm

There were many myth and folklore topics that grabbed my attention. But the four possible story book topics that have caught my eye the most were Foxes, OU Ghost stories, Zeus and Creek Stories.

The topic of Foxes grabbed my attention because I like animals and I think that it would be interesting to read stories about them, and retell those stories. I do not have any previous knowledge of the folktales that foxes are apart of. One of the stories i could see me making about foxes is a day in the life of a fox. This was one promising source i found that a possible story could be based around. The Fox and the Grapes

The next topic that I found interesting and that could be a possible story book topic is OU ghost stories. I do have a little bit of knowledge of some of the ghosts stories at OU but chosing this topic would allow for me to gain alot more knowledge of all of the different ghost stories at OU. One source that I found very promising for this story book was from the OU daily called OU Ghosts: Friends or Foes?

(I thought this picture related to the topic above of OU ghost stories, OU Daily)

The third topic that I thought would be a possible storybook topic was Zeus (Jupiter). As i do not have too much previous knowledge of Zeus I would really excited to gain more knowledge about the god to produce great stories. A good source I found was Zeus Cult 1, with the source some story ideas i can think of right now would be talking in terms of someone in the cult looking up to zeus.

The fourth and final topic i thought about creating a story book over was creek stories.  i had no idea what this would be about but i thought it had a funny name so I  chose it. With this i have once again no previous knowledge of this topic, but look forward to learning more about it. One really good source i found was Gouge. Creek Folktales With this source I think I could make some great stories using the plots from the stories that were already told on this source.
