Topic Brainstorm
Some interesting topics I have found for my portfolio are the topics of dogs, the greek goddesses, bible stories, and native american traditions.
I chose the topic dogs because I love animals and I find comfort in a dog being a man's best friend. I think there is a lot of creativity that could be sparked from stories relating to dogs, whether it be stories of reincarnation, fables, or just tales of the life of a dog. I have two dogs at home, so I think reading about something I have or can relate to makes things a little more fun.

I chose the topic of the greek goddesses because of my interest in greek mythology. Also, the fact that I am a woman and I like learning about the different historical aspects of my gender, whether its real or not. My first project of greek mythology was based off Athena. Since then, I have always found beauty in the stories from that specific ideology.

I chose the topic of bible stories because I come from a religious background. I find interest in seeing how the stories I read in the bible as a young girl are translated in the tales of mythology. It brings up many questions about faith, and the origins of many religions. It is definitely something that allows creativity, but also new perspectives.

I chose the topic of native american traditions because ever since I was young my grandparents have been teaching me about these stories. My great grandparents lived on an indian burial ground, which in their minds was very sacred. I am excited to take the stories I read in this class, and transform them into my own versions based on what I heard as a child.
