    I am still surprised that this came to me the way it did. I think it feels like a real fairy tale, it uses characters from Murkland that I adore, and I am just happy with how it turned out. Thank you for the inspiration Lisa and everyone.

    Miss Kelly Sims is new here to our little group and could not post her link. I am assuming that has to do with forum restrictions for new forum users? anyway, here is her first submission to our monthly little challenge here.

    Hello everyone! After some convincing from @xamira99 I decided to enter for the first time this month. I really liked the theme but as usual, my brain was unable to focus so it's a little bit on the longer side (in other words, it's exactly 1000 words). I hope it's ok I added screenshots of the characters before starting the story, but since they all have 2 appearances (the 'normal' appearance is on the left and their disguise in the middle) I hope it's easier to recognize them.

    You can find my entry for the MSSSC February 2021 on Tumblr (the pinned post) or click here: Princess Alaina and the Sleeping Beauty’s Spindle.

    Would a semi-retelling/original concepts and characters count for a fairy tale?

    @lisabee2 Is it possible for me to turn in my entry tomorrow the 1st? I live in Texas and this month has been terrible. We lost electricity and water during the storm. Then I was sick all last week. I thought I'd have this whole weekend to work on my story, but then the bathroom flooded yesterday. I'm so tired, but I tried to make it happen anyway. I'm halfway done and there's no way I'll finish before the deadline. If it's not possible, I understand and will join in March.
