There are several ongoing projects that might be of interest to readers.
The Laundromat Fairy Tales is a series of stories that are retellings of classic fairy tales and myths, mashed up with modern considerations. Many are inspired by news articles or social media posts from a variety of sources. Several of these stories can be found published online.
- A Year and a Day (The Little Mermaid)
- Spindle Talk (Sleeping Beauty)
- Pumpkin and Glass (Cinderella)
Several more in the series include the following:
- Apples to Apples, Dust to Dust (Cinderella)
- Tale of the Floorboards (The Emperor’s New Clothes)
- Fiend and Fair (Beauty & the Beast)
- Of Planting Spoiled Beans (Jack & the Beanstalk)
- Urdon (Snow White & Rose Red)
- Things Remembered (Persephone & Hades)
A second project is a piece of serial fiction. Peter Price, the Pumpkin Prince has been in-progress since 2011. It’s about the titular Peter Price who takes a walk out under the trees on his fifteenth birthday, and discovers that the world he knows maybe isn’t quite what he believes it is.
