Saga magicicada

Here is the first post for Saga Magicicada. First, about the name. I wanted to start a blog about narrative writing and that's why I chose the word saga. I was looking for some way to describe the long narrative with a word that somehow conveyed the amount of time and effort that went into such sagas. As I was rooting around for such a word, I just happened to come across a story about magicicadas, which are a type of cicada that periodically emerge every 13-to-17 years. That's about how long it takes for me to finish one of my own sagas.... So I think it's only appropriate to name my blog Saga magicicada!
