BLURB
Once upon a time, Rapunzel was stuck in a tower, Cinderella lost her shoe, and Aurora pricked her finger on a spinning wheel. We've heard these stories over and over. Even with variations, they have the same core concepts. If you could write a new tale — a fresh, imaginative piece (fiction or poetry) of your own — what would you write? This Write-a-thon, create your own original fairytale that incorporates wintery elements (snow, hot chocolate, winter holidays, ice).
