February is winding to a close

And oh, it’s been fun! Thank you for coming along with me on this adventure.

I thought that today I’d share with you a list of the fantasy characters I’ve met in books that I would most love to sit and have tea with.

There are only a few days of February left, dear friends.

Thank you all so much for making February is Fantasy Month super magical.

It’s been a true pleasure having so many wonderful guests over, I hope you have all found some new authors and bloggers to follow and investigate through these posts and short stories!

Today I am excited to be sharing Jessica A. Tanner’s short story, Ehsan’s Ride, with you. I am loving the fact that I got TWO fantastical short stories that are horse-themed, as my first reading love was horses (and dogs) and so two stories tying my two loves of horses and fantasy together are just absolutely thrilling my heart!

Hello readers and Happy Fairy Tale Day!

I’m Rachel Ann Michael Harris and I’ll be taking over Jenelle’s blog for February is Fantasy Month. I’m a fantasy writer whose had several flash fiction and short stories published online and in anthologies and am the author of the fairy tale retelling The Beauty of Magic, a mash up of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Goldie Locks with Scottish vibes and bears. I’m a lifelong resident of Minnesota and love reading, dogs, and sunshine.

In honor of fairy tale day, I’ll be talking about five fairy tales that don’t have enough (or any that I know of) retellings.

Enían and the Thunder Horse

Really, they only needed one. How dangerous could it be?

“It’s not worth the risk,” Kadesh had said. “You’ll get yourself killed before making it within a rope’s throw of those monsters.” 

Kadesh was good at being afraid. Though, Enían supposed it had something to do with watching four younger brothers die on the battlefield.
