Story Planning: A Letter to the Gods and Goddesses

This week I am writing about the Seven Secrets from Hindu Calendar Art by Devdutt Pattanaik. I have enjoyed this series more than the last series I watched. It seems to explain a bit more of the general thoughts behind Hinduism and parts of Indian culture. It is also very helpful to have the notes that Laura has written for us.
We learn about what makes the difference between a Goddess and a goddess in this section. As well as the interesting concept of Hijras, which are men that feel they are really women, what we would call in America transgendered.

For my story this week I am hoping to focus on the gods and goddesses versus Gods and Goddesses in the Indian culture. I am thinking that I could have one of the gods or goddesses send an email of complaint to the Gods and Goddesses. I think it would be interesting to have them discuss their problems as well as what they would like to have, sort of like a letter to a union or company. 
 Final Paragraph:


            And in conclusion, we feel that our rights have been long overlooked. We have tried to wait and be patient with you all. But our needs are not just for our own wants, we must have these things fixed to be effective gods and goddesses. Our followers want to be able to support us and feel like they are going to be rewarded for their commitment. In such we beg of you to look at our needs stated previously and to consider them seriously. If you are not able to make changes we will be forced to take further action.
Sincerely,

___(unsure of which god/goddess)___

I know that I need to work on vocative commas and small grammatical errors. I have reread through the vocative comma section to refresh the rules! Hopefully this will be better for my upcoming story!
