You’re a legend

Do you remember all the myths and legends that we learned in school? Three of my favorites are from Americana: Paul Bunyan, a giant logger who traveled with his blue ox, Babe, Johnny Appleseed, who planted apple orchards across America, and John Henry, a railroad worker who won a race against a steam powered shovel. They were people (two of them are definitely real people but nobody’s sure about Paul Bunyan) who did remarkable things. As people retold the tales, their feats and abilities grew.
If you were legendary, how would the story go? What remarkable feat would you perform? What does your legendary self look like? Which traits would be magnified? Do you have a companion? A mortal foe? And which aspects of your life are left out of the legend? (Those are nearly as important as what’s kept in, you know…)
I’m going to write the legend of Kristen based on something that actually happened this month. I’ll put it in the comments later today. I hope you’ll write one, too, and share it here.
