I hope, if I become famous, that future historians describe me as "flourishing."

Okay of these three characters (all historical and real) who would you most be interested in reading novel/s about?

Pompeius Magnus - rule breaker, golden boy, literally the most likable guy, builder of great buildings and most successful general ever pretty much. He also respects women which is just unheard of in his day to the point people make fun of him for it. He's also got a lot of tragedy and loss and the most poignant and cinematic death in all of history

Sextus Pompeius - "pirate", rebel, heart of absolute gold, honorable even to the people who deserve it least. Savior to hundreds, lord of Sicily. Dutiful son of a slain father. Also experiences a lot of loss. The last resistance to the totalitarian triumvirs. Very successful against them for years and largely forgotten by history. He was given the libelous title of "pirate king" but that just makes him sound cooler if you ask me

Pompeia Magna - fatherless at age six, tumultuous childhood that ends with her being put in the care of her uncle (this is where history ends and my made up story for her begins) used as a pawn to curry favor with a man she despises who was responsible for the ruin of her family, proud in spite of her humiliation. Taken under the wing of the "empress" who knew her as a child. She brushes shoulders with some of the big names of her day including the eventual successor to the governing of the empire. Without any true family to guard and protect her she is both more exposed to danger but also capable of more freedom of movement. She navigates the deadly waters of Rome to outlive all her enemies and see the men who put her in harms way brought to justice and to finally achieve her lifelong goal of living in security on her family's ancestral lands

Definitely put any further thoughts in the comments and tags

Okay I know what books I want to write I'm just struggling on where I should start. So poll time...

*Pompeia

In that first option bloody autocorrect hates me

Because like I know I want to start with either Pompeius Magnus for a chronological take or with Pompeia for a backwards order of some sort. Possibly having her compile her family history in her novel and then writing the novels about her predecessors like they're her work. I dunno. Starting a book is always the hardest but my head is so full of ideas.

Libro Di M. Gio Boccaccio Delle Donne Illustri Tradotto Per Messer Giuseppe Betussi. Con Una Additione Fatta, Dal Medesimo Delle Donne Famose Dal Tipo Di M. Giovanni Fino à I Giorni Nostri & Alcune Altre State Per Inanzi, Con La Vita Del Boccaccio, & La Tavola Di Tutte L'historie, & Cose Principali Che Nell'opra Si Contengono. All'illustriss. S. Camilla Pallauicina Marchese Di Corte Maggiore. In Vineggia M D LVIII RARE, ITALIAN LANGUAGE ILLUSTRATED Publisher: Francesco e gli Imperatori, Veneggia (Venice) Copyright: 1558

--ABOUT THIS ITEM-- Item Dimensions: 6.0 inches x 4.5 inches Boccaccio's On Famous Women (De claris mulieribus) is a remarkable work that contains the lives of one hundred and six women in myth and history, ranging from Eve to Boccaccio's contemporary, Queen Giovanna I of Naples. It is the first collection of women's biographies ever written. Boccaccio composed it at Certaldo in 1361-62 and revised it in various stages to the end of his life in 1375. He dedicated it to Andrea Acciaiuoli, countess of Altavilla in the kingdom of Naples and sister of Niccolò Acciaiuoli, the grand seneschal of Queen Giovanna I. In his preface, the author states that the biographies of illustrious men had been written often by a number of excellent writers, and he cited his hero Petrarch's Lives of Famous Men (De viris illustribus) as an example. No one, however, had ever done the same for women. Boccaccio, therefore, presents a wide variety of women from antiquity to his own time, offering their lives as both moral exemplar and entertaining reading. On Famous Women is the earliest source of women's biography in the West and has had a long and distinguished publication career and literary influence. The famous women included are: 1. Eve, the first woman in the Bible 2. Semiramis, queen of the Assyrians 3. Opis, wife of Saturn 4. Juno, goddess of the Kingdoms 5. Ceres, goddess of the harvest and queen of Sicily 6. Minerva 7.
