Description:

Greetings, Nightmares & Fairy Tales members. Your mission, should you choose to accept it (and I hope many of you do) is to create your own dark and twisted (or light and humorous, if you so desire) fairy tale and share it with the rest of the members of this swap by emailing it in the body of your email to your partners.

I'll start off with 5 partners, but I'll change the number to however many people join the swap, that way everyone gets to read everyone else's story.

The requirements are simple. Your story should incorporate fairy tale elements (talking animals, mythical creatures like elves and stuff, things like that) and it should be at least a page or so long. The rest is up to you. Have fun, and I'm looking forward to reading some new and exciting fairy tales!

Great idea for a swap, but it's challenging, too! I don't normally (ever) write fiction, but I might try turning a nonfiction tale into a fairy tale by having some of the dark elements/objects talk. =laugh= I'm watching for the time being, but will prob'ly sign up.

Very cool swap idea. As I don't write I will prob bomb in trying to create a unique tale >.< On my watchlist for me to build up some creative courage...

If you ever host an "alter the fairytale" or "work these elements into the story" swaps I will give it a def go. Those will act as my trainer wheels - hahaha.

I'm trying to get up the courage myself...but am going to take the plunge! I might not be able to email it, though, so mine might get sent through regular mail. Hope that's okay - sometimes the font/arrangement of words/possible need for illustration doesn't match email capabilities!
