gulp - i did it, L - i published my fairy tale on kindle. i shouldn't worry about my mom seeing it because she knows darn well how my childhood was and will see the parallels but i didn't give anyone names in the story. there's the unhappy princess, the duke and duchess, the fairy grandmother, and the evil queen - all the typical fairy tale characters - but i did not want to give any of them actual names. the unhappy princess just happens to have certain parts of my childhood. no one outside of my immediate family will know that though as it's not something i ever share with anyone else (other than you of course). I don't know why this is exactly but I am feeling lately this very strong calling to start putting my writing out there for the world to see. Maybe it's because our work lately is resulting in an internal shifting of sorts where I'm starting to be more concerned with being whole than with being perfect good little girl?!
