The Brightest Thread (a Sleeping Beauty retelling)
Status: Work-in-progress. Currently editing.
Premise: Luci hates the forced perfection of her magical gifts. Yet when she succumbs to a hundred-year sleeping curse, she finds the dream realm to be a far worse prison. Walking through dreams in search of another dreamer to rescue her, she unwittingly calls dozens of sleepers to their deaths, and vows never to ask for freedom again. But her extended stay in this realm is causing nightmares to escape into the waking world. And far away, a prince is dreaming too. If he is to save the weeping maiden haunting his dreams—and if she is to save him—there will be a high price to pay. For as the fairies say, truest love bleeds.

    Hahahaha, I love your poetry description. 'Over 50 pieces, some horrid, others beloved.' That's exactly how I feel (to quote Cinderella 2015). ;) Perhaps you may consider posting some of it?

      Hi Daisy! Haha, we writers are funny creatures, aren't we? ;) One day we'll get these books down on paper!

      (By the way, your comment on this page reminded me it's need of revamping. XD)

      Yeah, we writers totally are funny creatures. :) Question, is there a way to edit a comment without deleting it?

      I don't think you can, at least not on Blogger. I've wished I could many times, though! XD

    Okay this is kinda weird but I somehow got onto your Blogger profile (no idea how. I must've clicked your profile or something.), and saw that you like Tangled, Frozen, October baby, and Owl City. That is actually kinda cool because I like the first two movies really well. I'm still a big Frozen fan but also a fan of Inside Out. Those two are my fav. Disney movies and Kung Fu Panda and Dragons are my fav. DreamWorks movies. How about you?

      Hahaha, it's been forever since I updated that profile! But I do still love those things. Inside Out was a lot of fun--I liked it too. I also love Big Hero 6, How to Train Your Dragon, and Rise of the Guardians... Ah, so many! :D

      Big Hero 6, How to train your Dragon, Rise of the Guardians, I liked those pretty well too. My mom likes the last two. She likes Tangled better. I pretty much like any kind of movie but some I don't like. Like Trolls, Httyd2,... Ph and I like Lord of the Rings too. Super good! (Mom doesn't like LotR's.) I have yet to see Star Wars. ;)

      I LOOOOVE Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit as well! I haven't seen any of the original Star Wars yet; just the two newest movies. :)
