This is a group of some of my personal favorite stories that I wrote this semester. As you will soon see, two of my favorite genres are horror and superhero. All of these stories are loosely based on Indian Epics or tales. I try my best to maintain the theme of the source material while telling the story in a completely different way. If you are interested in the source material, I have included links to those stories, as well as talked about them in my author's notes. There were some stories that I wrote that were more or less just retelling the original in my own words but I decided not to include any of those here because I don't feel like they show my creativity or writing ability as well. I played around quite a bit with the order that I put these stories. I ended up deciding to split up the two horror stories because I think the more fantasy-like superhero story is a nice break from all of the doom and gloom.
I hope you enjoy these stories and please go read the original source material as well because there is so much to gain in those original stories. Also, be sure to leave a comment on my comment wall!
