I think retold fairytales lend themselves to obvious narrators very nicely. {SMILE}<br /><br />Anne Elizabeth BaldwinAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05083766769757259822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3265566975813453385.post-38172510132335284562012-07-19T11:04:34.283-07:002012-07-19T11:04:34.283-07:00I love that about `Redemption in Indigo!' :)
