Here are a few links that I have been using for some extra help remembering details for the book.

Welcome!

Hey people!
Welcome to my blog!  My name is Rachel, and I am currently studying Landscape Architecture at the University of Rhode Island.  I started writing my book after experimenting with writing stories.  I started writing short stories and sharing them with my friends.  When my friends liked them, I was encouraged to write more.  
My book, DIDO: QUEEN OF CARTHAGE, is a fictional book, written mostly from the point of view of the main character, Dido.  It is based off of the Roman myth of Dido, and parts of the Aeneid, which my high school Latin teacher (Mrs. M-D!!!!!) would read in class.
In this blog I would like to ask people what they think, post ideas, and give a general idea of what I'm planning to do.
Please feel more than welcome to comment, throw me an opinion or idea, or even just learn more about a wonderful myth!
