Ugh, God, you nearly had me in tears with this one. I relate heavily to your heroine, spending way too much time in the closet worrying about what others would think of me, hiding behind shitty poetry and thick plastic glasses... I understand the freeing feeling being described here all too well, and it overjoys me to see it here on the page and know that, no matter what, we are never alone.

Excellent work; thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to read and leave a lovely comment... :)

One of my friends recently came out to me, and talking to her about her journey to self-acceptance is what led to this. I'm glad it resonated for you. <3

I'm glad in the end, the heroine was able to live their truth :)

I adore your family-friendly fairy tales. I do hope you'll put them into a book one day and publish them as a collection. <3

Aww, thank you! I'd love to think that I could do that...perhaps I'll have to look into how :)

Yes, queen! :) This has the best elements of fairy tales, while subverting the ones that become too limiting. "Gerta" had such a clear and endearing voice, which makes her personal triumph so gratifying. She's an excellent, relatable LGBTQ heroine, and I appreciate how you took the time to build up the world and circumstances around her. Wonderful!
