"...in fields and by the roads, I saw on all sides men and animals--like statues--turned to flinty stone at sight of dread Medusa's visage..."
Medusa has been vilified in myth and legend throughout history. A monster justly slain by the heroic Perseus. But there is more to her story than what the myths said.
Medusa joined the temple of Athena, eager to serve, only to be turned out when she was most in need of help. Cursed and hunted, she fled Athens and everything she had ever known. This is her full story.
I graduated in 2012 with a BA in psychology and classical studies, both of which heavily influence my works. I've won several NaNoWriMo and Camp NaNoWriMo sessions and continue to participate in the events every year. With a love of world building and research, I am constantly expanding and refining the universes in which my stories are set.
