Unicorn Keep One Year Anniversary

Image
Unicorn Keep is having its one year anniversary this month. Wow! My unicorn story has been out for one year. Hard to believe. Seems like it was only a couple of months ago I sat down determined to write a story featuring unicorns, but having no idea what the story would be. Thankfully, Jiline and Herrick stepped forward almost immediately to start telling me their stories.

Doesn't matter if it is a completely modern retake or something in the time period of fairy tales. Children/Family or Adult. Love them all. The funnest part of retellings for me is seeing what they kept the same and what they twisted around to fit the "new" story.     Ever After: A Cinderella Story and Tangled are pretty close to the original stories. Taking as much as they can from the fairy tales and also taking place during the medieval times the fairy tales come from. Enchanted and Penelope are fun modern retellings of fairy tales. Penelope is probably closest to Beauty and the Beast , but also takes from other fairy tales. Enchanted includes most of the tropes of the "princess" fairy tales and puts its own unique twist for a completely new story. ...
