I Do Hereby Declare. . .

October is

FAIRY TALE MONTH

Once upon a time, in land far, far away, lived a writer who dreamed of someday writing about princes on white horses, princesses in sweeping castles, and happily ever after.


Okay, so I haven't written about two out of three of those things, but everything I write has a happily ever after. Call it the princess inside of me just longing to do some frog kissin'!


Since our first movie of the fall season is going to be Enchanted, I thought what a perfect time to discuss other "fairy tale" movies. My absolute favorite is Ever After! An adaptation of the Cinderella story, but told in a way that is believable. No singing mice. No pumpkin coach. But highly entertaining and ohhhh so romantic.


So, watch for posts on a fairy tale theme in October. Or beware! You might find a homely woman selling apples at your door.
