So I came up with the idea of 'Cracked Glass Slipper' posts.
Let me explain:
I've been toying for a while with the idea of retelling fairy tales in my own way - basically, as if I'm writing crack fanfiction. Only, this will be suitable for under 18s, unlike most crack fiction.
I'm under no illusions - this may go horrifically wrong pretty damn quickly. In which case I'll abandon it and pretend that it never happened *nods, smiles, laughs nervously.*
At the moment, what I have is random at best - it's demented, to be honest. I worry about myself sometimes.
And I have no idea whether it's any good - but then, I suppose I'll never know unless I share it with you all.
I apologise in advance if I scar you all for life. (It's a possibility at this point.)
Each story will be about made up of multiple parts (I think - not an awful lot of organisation happens in my head, so I'm not all that sure yet.) So each one will be serialised on Diary of a Reading Addict over several weeks/months (dependant on how long they are, and how quickly I write them.)
Hopefully this will be fun - and hopefully you'll all come along for the ride.
I'll be starting with Cinderella soon...
This seems like a great idea! I can't wait for your posts :)
ReplyDeleteHa, I just hope it turns out OK... oh well, in at the deep end it is! :)
DeleteHmm, I am interested to see where it goes! I am looking forward to starting to read Cinderella one, and of course we will help you know if it is good!
ReplyDeleteI expect nothing less than politely-framed but complete honesty ;)
