Indian Epics

 I feel great about my progress so far this semester. When I took Mythology and Folklore, I did not take advantage of beginning the class before the semester, so I really wanted to make sure that I do so with Indian Epics. Having the free time before school gave me the freedom to complete as much as possible, but with school starting now, I have to limit myself and find a more weekly routine. So far my favorite assignments have been the Microfiction. It is such a creative assignment and really challenges me to carefully select words to fit the 100 word requirement.

However, I have still been able to begin storytelling and read most of the epics.

It is a new challenge to have to write a story in such a limited amount of words, but it is one I have enjoyed. The reading notes have also been helpful with my storytelling. I use the reading notes to express my feelings on the story, especially what I felt is missing or could have have more detail. This helps me to plan what I want in m...
