Writer's Block: Timeless tales

[Error: unknown template qotd]
My parents read 'Harry Potter' to me, but before that, it was anything by Astrid Lindgren, especially 'Brothers Lionheart' and 'Ronia, the Robbers Daughter'. But I have generally been surrounded by books all my life, as my entire family are all avid readers. I also got interested in legend such as King Arthur, Robin Hood as well as Norse and Greek Mythology very early on. I had a period when I was ten, where I read every single book I could find on Norse Mythology. Other than that, I read a lot of fantasy, especially series by Danish authors Lene Kaaberboel and Josefine Ottesen. After loving them, I quickly became a fan of Tamora Pierce as well, after I'd read her Song of the Lioness-series.
