Sleeping Beauty was my favorite, still is, Denise. I wouldn't mind sleeping through all the problems and fighting to wake up to happiness. It wouldn't have to be a prince, but a NYT bestseller—or twenty— would be wonderful. My alter ego could do all the writing and work and social media while I dream away!

(There are many versions of this, but I'm partial to the animation by Folktales from Japan.)
Don't wait until you're pretty to have fun, and NEVER try to copy someone's lucky break.

Thanks! And here's to bookworm princesses everywhere! 😉

And I think that my fairy tale can change depending on what book I'm working on. But oh man, I'm definitely Beauty and the Beast... for sure!

Thanks, Julie. That helps. I do thrive on encouragement.

Yep, you've totally got this! And unfortunately, I have never read or seen Moana. Now I have to...just so I can recognize you in the story.

Sleeping Beauty was my favorite fairy tale when growing up. I certainly hope you don't have to wait 100 years. But it would be nice to have THREE wish-granting fairies in your corner!

Hahaha! I also went through that submission process, and I agree with your description! Wishing you find that just-right agent soon! All the best. 🙂

I am the girl who can see that my fate is somewhere beyond the horizon. I've got to trust, and learn skills and do the tasks to help my story breathe. I am the heroine and I am the Achilles' heel. But I still say, I'VE GOT THIS.

Now if I could just have a cool chicken like Hey-Hey...

Ha, Laura! You brave girl, you. 🙂
