As you can probably tell from the lack of entries on my blog, I've "gone dark" to work on my new fantasy romance series, The World of Pangaea. Book One is titled The Beast. I do seem to keep coming back to that theme! Sometimes I wonder if I need a support group to help me with my addiction :-) I'd love to read your take on the tale when it's finished. If you're on Facebook, drop by and friend me if you'd like. I'll announce there when the book is ready for publication.<br />All the best,<br />SondraSondrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05546034231903326795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8094987324990519939.post-46094995852676228432012-02-22T14:26:15.444-05:002012-02-22T14:26:15.444-05:00Sondra,

I've been enthralled with the Beauty and the Beast tale, and all its many incarnations and retellings, for as long as I can remember--so much so that I'm currently writing one of my own. Yours is one of the most beautiful I've ever read. I'm very much looking forward to reading more of your work. If it's half as good as this one, I'm in for a real treat.<br /><br />Kind regards,<br /><br />Grace Draven<br />www.gracedraven.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8094987324990519939.post-90199468233477295262011-09-06T21:46:33.513-04:002011-09-06T21:46:33.513-04:00So very moving!So very moving!E.

Then she says he's got sad eyes. Up to this point, I think I'm following, then the last line throws me. When did the mirror come in?
