You will get to choose the god you interview, but before we start our interviews, I want you to see an example. You’re going to read the interview aloud in partners.   Decide who will be Zeus and who will be the interviewer, Pheme. the personification of fame and renown, her favour being notability, her wrath being scandalous rumors. Answer the questions as you go.
