Forward (READ THIS!!)
Yeah, I usually skip over the forwards, too. Well, this is IMPORTANT, so READ IT!
After little success with writing original stories, I've turned to an old favorite--original retellings of old fairytales. I've always loved reading then (my favorite book in the world IS Ella Enchanted, after all) and now have decided to write them.
I first did a retelling of the Arachne story. After I watched "Snow White: Fairest of Them All" on "The Wonderful World of Disney," though, I KNEW I had to do a Snow White retelling.
Why?
Because I've always disliked the Snow White story. Well, not always, but it certainly was never my favorite fairy tale. And with all the fairy tale retellings out there, Snow White holds less than 5% of those. I mean, I've read a million Cinderella retellings, but no Snow White ones!!
So, I decided to write one. I had 2 storylines, but the other one didn't work. So, I'm going with this one.
Keep an open mind, because this story gets VERY different from the original. VERY DIFFERENT.
That's pretty much all I have to say.
Now go and read it.
