Once Upon A Time: the Dark Fairy Tales Challenge

Hmmm my dark, twisted, fetishy, morally bankrupt sequel of a story is nearing its completion.

It might just fit this category!
 
Anyone have a publish date for their submission yet. Mine is still in pending. Previously I’ve had a publish date set as day one of the event. But it’s never the same as the last time, is it?
 
Mine is still pending, but given that it's the weekend I don't really expect it to change until Sunday evening (European time).

Hopefully at least a few will be published on Monday.
 
Well, I threw caution to the wind. I know my beta reader had question on the story and a specific part, but I read my story three times and well, threw my hands in the air. I tweaked a tiny bit and just submitted it

Let the readers decided if it was a decent fairytale or not. Let the replies and votes land where they land.
🤷🏼‍♀️ so be it.

Best you to you all but Pomma’s Orchard has been submitted.

Here is a breakdown of some of their ages based on the films or official sources:
Not sure how "official" ages can be for characters in stories that have been around for centuries and have undergone so many changes. "Old enough to get married" seems as safe a guideline as any.
 
I have two stories that are in the proof-reading stage. One I should be able to upload in a couple days, the other, longer one, will probably take me another couple weeks to fully polish. I find the many proof reads and polishing passes take far longer than writing the main bulk of the story :cautious:

Talk about light and dark. One story ended up going much more humorous than I thought, whilst the other one went very dark, to the point I wondered if I should take a certain section out as it is far darker than I normally write. In the end I left the very dark scene in as it was the irredeemable character's catalyst to find redemption.
