It is long past time that we had fairytales written about and for ourselves. --Catherine Lundoff, author of Night's Kiss. Sleeping Beauty, Indeed is a must read for everyone who ever rewrote the old stories in her head, searching for nuance and subtext
Valente, and Erzebet YellowBoy, turning a page is like taking a bite of that luscious apple.
