My story for thingsunwritten, in a non-twist of Fate, remains unwritten.

[ink_n_imp]

So, once again I am participating in a little original story writing exchange thingamabob called thingsunwritten. And once again, absolutely, completely, positively and utterly true to form, I've tossed what I began the first week I got my writing request right out the window, and have started a completely new beast of a story.

Seriously, I've gone from rewriting the Grimm fairy tale of Snow White and Rose Red as a very thinly veiled allusion to Mary Queen of Scots and Queen Elizabeth I with some magic and romance thrown into the mix, and instead am writing a romantic buddy comedy about a Knight and a Godmother who have to protect a Princess throughout her childhood set in the vaguely middle ages.

(Romance and Magic were requested, btw.)

I feel like I need to draw myself a new icon, a picture of a skeleton covered in cobwebs, hunched over one of those monastic work stations, quill still in hand with only "WIP" as the text. If only I were a better drawer!

Ah well. Back to work. This sucker is due the 23rd, and DANGNABIT I AIM TO PLEASE!!!


EDIT: IfOnce I finish this story, I am entirely pouring libations to the kind soul who uploaded the Pinocchio soundtrack to a music lj I'm part of. That soundtrack it practically writing the thing for me!
