Reading Notes: The Divine Archer, Part A

From the very first page, you are able to see how extravagant the city is. They mention all sorts of gems and metals to decorate. When all the of sons are born, it is obvious who is the favorite. Rama has a lot of markings on him that show how noble he is. I like this idea of having a character be physically different and this difference means that they are special in a good way. It shows that the universe wanted him to be born noble and respected.



I like the way that this story is written. It is from an outsider’s point of view and this means that they are able to add a lot of detail to all of the characters that are involved in the story. Writing stories in this style allow the writer to have a lot more freedom in writing as it is not for just one specific character. Last week I wrote a story from this point of a view and I enjoyed doing that, but to get more practice I might try to write a story from a character’s point of view. This will allow me to be attentive to just one character and truly make them exactly the way that I want.

anklets that Sita wore that Rama heard


I want to write a story where two character’s love each other the way that Sita and Rama do. Rama is willing to perform any task to be with Sita. He heard her bangles and knew that he wanted to be with her. Having characters be almost blinded by love will create an interesting twist to any story. They may be right for each other but they may not. It all depends on the personality of the character’s and if they want to sacrifice parts of themselves for one another. In this story, Rama will do anything for Sita. I want to write a story that is based off of Rama’s love for Sita.
