Thanks for sharing these links! This is...Fantastic. Thanks for sharing these links! This is helpful to me as I'm working on my WIP, Sleeping Beauty and the Beast of Vepreskastel. My "beast" character is more of the lycanthropic type, which irritates him to no end because everyone thinks he's a werewolf. And in my fantasy world, there are no such things as werewolves. How silly!<br /><br />Also, Beauty is a conniving, nomadic witch who dupes her drunken father into stealing Beast's flower so she can use it in a spell. Then, when her father is caught, she gladly trades herself to the Beast so she can infiltrate his palace for her own purposes. <br /><br />Whee! I love playing with fairy tales. Reading other people's retellings throughout history helps me understand the evolution of the tale and choose my own twists wisely.Jean Michelle Miernikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08971882597502010124noreply@blogger.com
