Fairy Tale Princesses - I think this would be an interesting topic, especially because I enjoyed writing the story of Kushinada-hime this week. Making her play a more valuable role in the story was important to me, and I think I could do that with other stories. I would definitely like to learn more about how princesses are portrayed in other cultures.

Retelling Bible stories as classic fairy tales - I'm a Christian, so I know the majority of stories in the Bible very well. I'm not sure where this idea is going, but it could be interesting to tell the stories in a different way. I wouldn't change the plot, but maybe the text, and make the stories more geared toward children.
Animal stories - If I made a storybook featuring animals, I would probably just pick one animal and use it in all types of roles: protagonist, antagonist, etc. I also kind of categorize animal stories with ones that give a moral, so I would also include that in each story.
India stories: I'm from India, so I would like to learn more about the stories from there. I don't think I should limit it to fairy tales or animals or gods or anything. I would rather have a big melting pot of everything! I'm not sure how exactly I will retell these stories, but I'm sure I'll get a better picture in the future.
