Fairytale Beginnings

Description

This is one of six pages I'm making for my class project- a sample of pages from a story idea I came up with years ago now, and am finally getting some work done on. Not the first six pages of it, actually rather around the middle. It's an adaption of a fairy tale that I've never liked... You can probably guess which.

Originally the princey chap was going to be far more masculine looking, but it fit his character more and contrasted with another character much better if he was all slender and whatnot. I knew this would get me grief from my class, as they abhore any kind of manga and pretty boys and such, but I have to put what works best for the story before that.

I'll post the full six pages with text once they're done. I have quite a few finished, but they just need a little more touching up and the like. As for if I'll at some point complete the WHOLE story, I'm not sure. I'll see how things go.

Have you ever read The Rumpelstiltskin Problem by Vivian Vande Velde? It contains a half dozen retellings of the Rumpelstiltskin story by an author who was similarly dissatisfied with the traditional version. I think it'll be interesting to see how your version compares to her versions. Anyhow, I am quite fond of the walls and the door here, and I'm looking forward to the full six pages!
