Fairy Tales and Fantasy
This month on my Myth or Magic series, we’re talking about a pretty interesting (and possibly a little scientific) question.
“Why doesn’t Rapunzel ever climb down her own hair and escape out of the tower?” -Kat
Well, Kat, thanks for the question! I explored three possible things keeping Rapunzel in her tower and I think I’ve landed on the most likely one.
We’ve all asked the question: If Ariel knows how to sign her name (as evidenced by the contract she signs for Ursula), then why doesn’t she just write Eric a note explaining who she is and that he needs to kiss her?

Hey there fellow word nerds! I apologize for not posting for so long. Sometimes I just have a hard time coming up with things to write about, or I get busy with other projects. But hopefully, a new series I’m about to start will help! I’m calling it Myth or Magic and I’m counting on you to contribute.
Let me explain.
You asked me some great questions!
Until next time, word nerds!
I talk a lot about books and writing in general here on my blog, but I realized that I very rarely talk about my own writing. Sometimes I’ll update you with general ideas I’m working on, but I don’t often discuss the details.
Well that changes today!
I’m honored to be a part of the blog tour for the release of Kristen Stieffel’s debut novel, Alara’s Call. It’s the first book in The Prophet’s Chronicle and I was lucky enough to get an advance copy of the book to read and review!
So what’s it about?
Sometimes you just need to write something silly. Head over to my Facebook page to see the video of our speech!
Until next time, word nerds!
I finally got the recap of the conference filmed and uploaded!
Until next time, word nerds!
