@HerringAli Ah, this was an abandoned back burner idea of mine. Might bring it back into the light knowing it's a thing and people are looking for it 🙃This is definitely a thing I'm looking for. Clean like a fairytale but with all the feels. Like how I felt watching Ever After #MSWL

@inthesestones @Sara_Brookes Is LGBTQ retellings of non-standard fairy tales still on your list? B/c I want to read those too.Always on my list for erotic romance! Even standard fairy tales, too. (M/M Beauty and the Beast or Rumpelstiltskin come to mind...) #MSWL

Or take a page from Queen: She's a Killer Queen...Dynamite with a laser beam. That kind of princess. #MSWLBasically, don’t give me European fairy tale princesses. I want the fantasy of being a princess livened up and pushed ahead. #MSWL

I love the Brontes, Austen, fairytales, and mythology retellings. But you can surprise me with different retelling. #MSWL

#mswl MG a la PAN'S LABYRINTH--layered fairytale that doesn't flinch from reality, finds the light in the darkness. Fascist stomping a plus.
