I am entranced by the very notion of ancient ledgends and folklore.
But not just of Europe or Roman times but of Egypt and her ancestors the Zep Tepi or of pre deluvian times if you will. Its my dirty little secret. To satisfy this thirst I wrote fictional accounts of the rediscovery of scrolls stored in deep underground chambers that had caved in after the burning of the Alexandrian library. Even settings from Malta to Cyprus and Turkey were wonderful backdrops for this kind of science fiction in reverse. Even cats , mice and monkeys have dialog when needed.
I have yet to write about traveling to South America from Egypt but it is stewing. Movies like 10 ,000BC give me a barely adequate fix. If I can't have the real stories I have to make my own. (but I hate the word fantasy)
Forever conflicted Donuel.
