   Qoheleth chapter 1 . 1/10/2015 Your Ladyship: Hmm. So which specific fairy tale is this based on, exactly? I don't recognize it. Sincerely, Qoheleth |
| The M.H.T.of R chapter 1 . 7/26/2014 That was lovely. You, my dear, are a wonderful writer, and don't you ever forget it. Kudos! Tsarina |
| Aleriaxx chapter 1 . 7/26/2013 beautiful and cunningly written...wow! |
| soul61 chapter 1 . 12/20/2011 This may very well be my new favorite fairy tale:) |
| PineappleMoon chapter 1 . 7/24/2011 Loved it. Seems that you're as good at making up your own stories as writing about others' stories. |
| Il'Diko chapter 1 . 2/27/2010 Oh I loved this tale! Your original work should kick *. It had all the markings of fairy tales, it was exciting, it had great caharcterisation and a happy end. :) A fav. |
| Update chapter 1 . 6/26/2009 I love this! It's so fairytale-perfect (I mean, perfectly fairytale-y) but without the nasty damsel-in-distress-ness that plagues most 'real' fairytales. So excellent! |
| verity candor chapter 1 . 6/21/2009 Brilliant. I totally saw the Yew/You thing coming, and I felt so clever... aww, poor merchant's son. But shame on him for running off. Idiot. |
| bookomania chapter 1 . 1/21/2008 Wow, I'm really impressed! You're a great writer! I absolutely loved the riddle ("Have I found Yew?"). I actually thought all of their houses happened to be built from Yew wood, but I liked your way better! And the ending, with the merchant's son finally finding 'his princess'-who would never have been a princess in the first place if he hadn't left! I loved it-I'm sure you got full marks for it! bookomania |
| the-original-hufflepuff chapter 1 . 12/23/2007 Oh, this is lovely! It reminds me of fairytales I read as a little girl, if I hadn't known that you had written this then I would have assumed that it was written around the same time as all the old fairytales. This is really, really, beautiful, and I bet you passed! -Huffie x |
| InChrist-Billios chapter 1 . 11/15/2007 Oh! *little gasp of surprised pleasure* Isn't it lucky then that I've found this little nugget of glory among the normal Fairy Tales! How brilliant! The storyline was told in a flawlessly fairy tale manner, one that I can't quite seem to catch no matter how hard I try. I applaud you, and admit my jealousy. *smile* Yew is wonderful, and the traditional quick-thinking dashingly true heroine we all love to read about. Great work! Her curse, and the merchant's son at the end, were mystical and sweet accordingly. I didn't expect him to come back, yet you made him happy(ish) in the end. Well done, indeed! I do hope you get marvelous marks for it! |
| Escaped chapter 1 . 11/14/2007 Beautiful. I love the final plot twist. |
