In the tutorial with Alan, he mentioned that I should try and find a story, that will describe a world for me rather that create a whole new one. With this I will be able to create a character that can grow from this world and it will have the style of this world entwined into it.
With this advice, I went home and read a couple of stories from "The Brothers Grimm" that I have. There are little snipets of ideas that I have obtained from different stories, however nothing massive right now. I have attempted to stay away from the stroies that have been dragged out to an endless end, for example Rapunzel and Red Riding hood.
I have taken a list of some titles of stories that took my attention out of the 200 hundred stories in the book. I will read this collection of stories and find one that I could possibly work with. I may also move on to look at fairy tales from other countries.
Anyways the list is :
The Wonderful Musician
The White Snake
The Seven Ravens
The Tailor in Heaven
The Water Nix
The Young Giant
The Water of Life
The Goose-Girl
The Raven
Simeli Mountain
Master Pfriem
The Willow Wren
The Sea Hare
