This could be a story found in any classic collection of fairy tales. It doesn't for an instant waver from the traditional form. This is a really good, fun application of the prompt.
Thank you for posting the story in the Ink Well community and thank you for supporting your fellow authors.
Wow, thank you so much! I loved fairytales as a kid and read my two collections of them as if they were religious tomes, perhaps the structure stuck, lol!
I really, really appreciate all the hard work you all do for the community, it's really cool to see it grow and develop, I love The Ink Well:)
