Episode: Episode 56 ~ "Enchanting Wisps" - Fairy tale
Hosts: Steven and Sarah
"We've all grown up with fairy tales, stories of princesses and magic,
lore and legend, beauty and overwhelming wealth. Challenging stories of
love such as Snow White, Cinderella, and Rapunzel. Cautionary tales
such as the Emperor's New Clothes and Hansel and Gretel. Evil witches
and step-mothers haunting our dreams. Join Steven and Sarah as we
explore fairy tales and then create a new story full of wonder and
magic."
Goodness, creating a fairy tale was harder than I thought it would be!! And in all honesty I don't know if Steven and I really succeeded, but we did have fun getting creative and playing around with ideas. Fairy Tales are an interesting form of story telling. Short stories passed from one generation to the next: Cautionary tales, morals, good and evil, magic, beauty, gold, and royalty. Stories containing both humans, animals, or both. There's so much. I got the audio book for Grimm's tales, complete, first edition, (highly disturbing in many cases), and they're over 19 hours listening time, though the first hour is simply an introduction.
So if you have some time and want to listen to something interesting, I hope you enjoy this episode of the Creator's Playbook, and you can judge if we succeeded or not. :P
Until next time,
Sarah
P.S. Check out L. Frank Baum's book, who wrote the Wizard of Oz, "American Fairy Tales". Such a fun little read.
