As for fairytales...Talli - Congrats on your work! <br /><br />As for fairytales, um, yeah... so I have a series called Blood and Snow, which is a fairytale retelling of Snow White. LOL. There are vampires, revenants, and even a wicked Queen. <br /><br />As a kid my favorite fairytale was probably Peter and the Wolf (is that a fairytale). Okay, one with princesses? Um, Sleeping Beauty? I enjoyed reading and watching them all.

Although when I was 15 I had a crush on Prince William, and I ended up marrying a guy that looks quite a bit like him (and people tell him so all the time LOL). I was attracted to things like Alice in Wonderland. And I pretty much wanted to be Maleficent... at least for halloween. Her outfit ROCKS. haha. Though I did run around singing the songs from Disney's version of Sleeping Beauty, so maybe part of me did want to be THAT princess. lol. <br /><br />Congrats on the second draft! <br /><br />Kristin Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14169967050454852124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869854312562524230.post-10336397178203832312012-09-14T15:35:37.894+01:002012-09-14T15:35:37.894+01:00Hi Talli, congrats on finishing your second draft!...Hi Talli, congrats on finishing your second draft!!Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04735148155885016692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3869854312562524230.post-55439787473813039722012-09-14T15:28:31.976+01:002012-09-14T15:28:31.976+01:00Congratulations Talli.
