At the wedding ceremony
the two sisters came to curry favor
and the white dove pecked their eyes out.
Two hollow spots were left
like soup spoons.
-- Anne Sexton, “Cinderella”
My foray into
the twisted alternative fairytale was first introduced via Anne Sexton, and her
poetry. In college, I took an entire class on fairy tales, and what a lesson
that was. Do you know there’s an entire study of “Cinderella Syndrome,” where
women wait around for their prince to rescue them? It’s all blamed upon the
fairytale.
How wonderful
for Decadent Publishing to empower writers, and many of them women, with the
re-telling of these tales. Where the princess doesn’t always need to be
rescued, or may the hero comes in another gender.
I’m thrilled to
be part of the Beyond Fairytales line, and even more excited to Go Blue!
Thanks for
stopping by on this hop. Hopefully, you’ve gained a little magic and belief in
the Happily Ever After!
If you're feeling a little blue, we've got the cure for you in the Blue Book of Grown-Up Fairytales. The box set features my story "The Thief & His Master." Here's a look:
When Madeline
places an ad on ThievesList for an apprentice, she wants more than an employee.
She’s searching for her life mate. For only her
fated one possesses the strength to overcome the life-altering challenges of
the quest.
Feeling stuck,
Sven drops out of college for an enticing job. Although the want ad mentions
“discipline,” he doesn’t expect to find magic in the hands of his potential
boss.
Sven’s world
shifts to a new reality. He’ll battle danger and his destiny to find his true
calling, and love.
Until next time,
Louisa Bacio
