Sounds like it was interesting. I love all things folklore…I even included fairies (though an uglier, more mischievous kind of my own invention) in my first novel

Nice! I write about the fairy nymphs but they are benevolent to humans. They were put her by the gods to protect the earth. ❤

I’ve always loved that, the traditional ideas of fairies as protectors or wish granters. It’s mainstream as hell, but I can’t help it…. I LOVE tinkerbell. My five year old watches the movies a lot, and I can’t help but laugh at the fact that a 26 year old man like me gets into them as much as she does lol. But that’s the beauty of myth I suppose…even when it gets commercialized by Disney XD

LOL! That’s great. I love hearing that as a Dad you can relate. Never lose that connection. My nymphs are closer to Avatar, and a movie my kids loved when they were young – but I can’t think of the name of it. Good grief! 😀 If you write fantasy, you should write something for my Fairies, Myths, & Magic Author Spotlight. Here’s the link:https://colleenchesebro.com/author-spotlight-guest-posts/. I’m always looking for self-published authors I can introduce to my readers. ❤

Awesome! Thank you. I’ll check out that link soon. Do you mean I would write something like a short story for it, or could you use an excerpt or chapter from my book?
