If you love to write, you should publish an e-book and offer it for sale. This method has been very successful for a lot of authors. <a href="http://www.sattabazzar.com/" rel="nofollow">satta king</a><br />play bazaarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11136272745942764383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2088483294429546691.post-54149861248812077302014-06-19T19:23:12.745-07:002014-06-19T19:23:12.745-07:00http://ovid.lib.virginia.edu/trans/Metamorph4.htm#...http://ovid.lib.virginia.edu/trans/Metamorph4.htm#478205208<br /><br />The story (it's really short) can be found here. I've read a couple of other translations and they're all clear that the Greeks considered Medusa's punishment to be justified. <br /><br />Likewise, they have no problem with Perseus hunting down Medusa. He's a hero, after all, and she's a monster. From the text though, I think it's fair to say that Medusa wants to be left alone. She's far away from civilization, not terrorizing villages and cities, and she only turns to stone those adventurers who want to kill her. <br /><br />Thank you for the kind words and advice. It means a lot. I'll keep you updated on how things go!

This IS a story worth telling.<br /><br />Good luck with the quest for voice (nice of you to spare Ariel). It's something that's hard to teach, but (as a teacher, I can't help trying) you might want to read a bunch of books with a similar setting and tone to what you're striving for, and then aspire to emulate it.Dianne K.
