I really want to write something epic about ancient Rome and I guess ancient history altogether. It would have to be more than one book I guess. I want to write something from the perspective of a citizen, and I'm thinking teenager or something, of the Roman Empire. Then I want to write something from the perspective of an aged person living in Mecca or Medina around 600 ad but the fact of Muhammad will be a only a background but it will always be prevalent. Then I want to write something from the classical Chinese perspective but and tie that in with Buddha somehow, maybe Indian/Chinese perspective. Although I don't know much about either histories, not that I'm an expert on anything at all. The dark ages are really interesting too. I think what I want to write are realistic historical fiction novels from first person perspectives in those ancient periods. There's too much I want to do, and I'm not getting any of it done.
