That’s right, not a fairy tale, a Tale Faery. A genuine hetero, cis Tale Faery. We’re rare.
It started with dragonflies on a magic summer day in Gainesville Florida. One of those 100+ degree, 100+% humidity (seriously, a clear blue sky supersaturated with humidity, a state of dew), my five-year-old daughter and I rode our bikes around a swamp, and I discovered what faeries are.

Yes, indeed, whatever works for you, go for it! Or, if nothing is working for you – go for it! My husband, a tv writer, says, "Remember, you have to write something before you write something good." What he means is – just write it – do not worry about this and that – just get your ideas down on the page. Then edit, tweak, see what develops and what evolves.
I think there is something to be said for that – just write, and go from there. Like in the movie "Finding Forrester." Sean Connery tells his young protege Rob Brown to write, but the kid sits there at the typewriter thinking. And Sean Connery booms at him to write! Pound those keys!
Thanks for such a thought provoking post, guys!
