Please Don't Kill Me

by halfbloodshadowhunter

We have all read stories where the characters write letters to us fanfiction writers, so I thought it might be fun to write a story where the letters are for the original writer, Rick Riordan. Sugestions are welcome; I will try to write a chapter for whatever character you would like to hear from. Rated T because I'm paranoid.

2. Apollo's letter

Apollo's Letter:

First of all, I'll have you know that I am not bad at poetry! Why would I be the god of poetry if I was bad at it? Anyone with at least half a brain would prefer reading my poems over being shot by an arrow. Look, I can prove that my poems are good on the first try:

In all of your books

I write terrible poems

But that is not true

That had exactly 5 syllables on the first and third lines and seven in the middle line, plus it was funny and interesting. And that was just a haiku. You should see one of my limericks.

By the way, why am I always flirting with my sister's huntresses? I'm way more respectful of sacred oaths than that. Hell, I killed Orion when I thought Artemis was falling in love with him.

P.S – I'm a little mad at you for portraying me differently than the ancient Greeks did, but let me just say that I love what you did with my chariot. Best. Ride. Ever.

-Apollo

My thanks go out to the person who suggested writing from a god's point of view, because it was a good idea and I will be doing more chapters like this. And I apologize if this chapter was too critical of Rick Riordan; I admire his work no matter what I write in this story.
