LOVE old legends and folklore. In fact I was surfing the internet a while back and found an entire list of them,kept me busy reading for hours. I myself do not know of any except what I have read on line. But thoase kind of stories are some of the best. Keep up writting them, for as you know 'A BOOK IS A GIFT YOU CAN OPEN MANY TIMES".

OH! That is my favorite of all. Legends, by far, offer up so much to spin off of. I love getting caught up into a really good book that keeps me reading long into the night! And, I am always waiting for next one to come along!! Keep writing...I'll keep reading.
