Haha, I&#...KIRI, THIS PLOT IS SUPERB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br /><br />Haha, I'm pretty sure I've read one or two of the 'worse' tales you mention. Yeah... not so cool.<br /><br />Yay, no kiss to wake up! :D<br /><br />TWO HEROES... WHO ARE COUSINS?!!!! THAT SETTLES IT. I MUST HEAR MORE ABOUT THIS PRONTO.<br /><br />Searching for her place in the world and the truth behind everyone... SOUNDS TERRIFIC!!!<br /><br />Please, PLEASE tell me this will be as spectacular as SotHT??!! :D Will it be set in the same world?Arielle Melody Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651308960712330062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-87458642263967188092014-06-10T11:25:54.047-04:002014-06-10T11:25:54.047-04:00Elizabeth ~ Ah, yes. My only complaint with Prince...Elizabeth ~ Ah, yes. My only complaint with Prince Philip is that he doesn't talk. His last words are, "Goodbye, Father!" Seriously? I've heard about Maleficent... I'm interested to see the fresh take on the story, but... I don't know. We'll see.<br /><br />Kendra ~ For some odd reason, the "thyme" is making me laugh. Would she take 100 tsp of thyme to sleep for 100 years? ;) Anywho, I'm not certain on the exact herb yet. Still working on the research aspect of all of that.<br /><br />Lauri ~ *I* don't know how I come up with these things! Please tell my brain to function properly! *winks* YES! You need to fix this, too. *cough* No, I'm not telling you what to write. Ahhh, thanks! Your comments always make me smile!<br /><br />Arwen ~ :D So... romance. Really, I detest it. But I can't control my characters, so they fall in love without my permission. I do, however, refuse to write anything mushy, fluffy, or otherwise nonsensical. I'll say why they love each other and that they got married, but I won't drip gushy because I abhor that. Does that answer your question?<br /><br />Cait ~ Thank you!! I love fairytale retellings, too, and that's probably why my mind is buzzing with so many right now! :P Plot bunnies.... *le sigh* What is a writer gonna do with them?<br /><br />Anne ~ I debated whether or not to use the 100 year sleep for a while, actually. My practical side won out (in a sense) as I decided if I was going to retell Sleeping Beauty, I should probably stick as close to the original as possible with the main plot points.

I like the thought of dealing...An interesting idea. I like the thought of dealing with "after" it would have been really hard to wake up after a hundred years. I have a story based on sleeping beauty that my sisters and I are acting out as a pretend game. But mine is more like a allegory of sleeping beauty and I'm NOT using the full hundred years. You're really brave to do that though.

I LOVE retellings...and fairy tale retellings are probably my most favourite of all. x) I just read Cruel Beauty which is a retelling of Beauty and the Beast and it was awwwwesome. Anywho!! Yours sounds fabulous! Good luck with it. I have a zillion plot bunnies rampaging in my head at the moment, too. <br /><a href="http://www.notebooksisters.com" rel="nofollow">Cait @ Notebook Sisters</a> CG @ Paper Furyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954615708675952085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-33541076910433053602014-06-04T19:46:06.821-04:002014-06-04T19:46:06.821-04:00This looks interesting!

I didn't know she was supposed to sleep for a hundred years, but whaddya know, you learn something new every day, as the saying goes;) I'm sure you'll do a marvelous job with it!<br /><br />Haha I love how you said, "But she's not going to get woken up with a kiss. Ugh. No. I refuse to go there." ;) Speaking of, I've been wondering if you do include romance elements in your stories, like SotHT (which, by the way, I canNOT wait to readXD). ? <br /><br />(Oh, and by the way, the promotional cover. Yes. Yes, indeed;D)Oliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03546655886492251059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-8650906783282615482014-06-04T18:41:41.327-04:002014-06-04T18:41:41.327-04:00OOOOOH MY GOOOOODNESSSS. THIS SOUNDS AH-MAY-ZIIING...OOOOOH MY GOOOOODNESSSS. THIS SOUNDS AH-MAY-ZIIING!!!!!!!!!! KIRI. YOUR BRAIN IS AMAZING. I just don't know HOW you come up with these things!!!<br /><br />If you didn't know already, I'm basically a fan of ANY fairtytale retelling. They're the best! So, yeah, my excitement levels at you making all these fairytale retellings are verrrry high!<br /><br />And this plot! Just...YES. Sleeping Beauty has always been one of those stories that has bugged me as well. It's just...silly, really. I don't know. It's got a weird, unsatisfying plot. In fact, I've had an idea or two about it myself just because my mind has to make nonsensical plots make SENSE. I'm constantly doing that. I guess since I'm always trying to make my own plots make sense, I have to do it with other people's plots as well. Curse of the writer. But anyways, I love this idea! And can I just say how gorgeous the title is?

This sounds delightful. Would the herb that put her to sleep be "thyme" by any chance? Kendra E.

Sleeping Beauty is not one of my favorite fairy tales, but it is one of my favorite Disney movies because of *ehem* Prince Phillip. He's wonderful. :) My friend is trying to get me to go see the new movie about Sleeping Beauty that is out now; Maleficent. But I am weary of going since I hear they changed the story drastically. :/Meeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08057852084561496151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-7641351745216865902014-06-04T15:09:28.841-04:002014-06-04T15:09:28.841-04:00I am going to pick it up again.

Don't worry; I haven't abandoned it. :) And BtT is only a beginning experiment. I don't think I'll get much further than the first chapter this month. Still too much to figure on.Kirsten Fichterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01887462858049277918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5328638743833934975.post-26899150396980276442014-06-04T14:59:24.789-04:002014-06-04T14:59:24.789-04:00That sounds interesting.
