Ugly: A Faerie Tale Retold by HannahRobinsonAuthor

You've heard the story of Cinderella-- how she conquered the odds, danced at the ball, and married the prince. That's mostly accurate, except for the part about marrying the prince. This story is not about Cinderella. It's about her ugly stepsister, Thisbe, who also conquered the odds and danced at the ball. And if you want to find out who actually married the prince... well, you'll have to read the story. Trigger warnings: Child abuse and mentions of suicide.

The Tragic Tale of Cinderella by JeremyCroston

All fairy tales are supposed to end happily ever after, no? What if they were just lies? The truths behind those tales could be as black as the night for all you know. Maybe you think I'm just a skeptic, a hardened old man who just doesn't see the magic anymore. Well, you'd be right on both accounts. Don't let me dampen your love of stories and how the world works. But for those of you who seek the truth and want to know more, I invite you to listen to my tale. For I was there when that awful woman Lady Tremaine took control of my former lord's manor. I saw the depths of evil that lived inside her. And most importantly, I saw the girl you call Cinderella change from beloved daughter to fierce warrior. Before there was princes and love, there was heartbreak and war. My name's John and I was just a stable boy, but I was there and was able to chronicle The Tragic Tale of Cinderella.

Stealing Cinderella's Crown by KitandCat

COMPLETE "Whether you believe in fairy tales or not, every girl is a princess to somebody." A modern retelling of Cinderella where the evil Stepmother is a narcissist and the entire family falls into the classic roles of a toxic family.

I'm not the girl everyone thinks I am. I mean, I am Cinderella' stepsister. But I promise, I'm not evil. I'm just a girl who got stuck with a beautiful step-sister, who wants nothing to do with me. What about my happily ever after? And Cinderella? She's not as nice as everyone thinks...

Princess Rosie and the Dragon by YourMyPenguinLern

Once upon a time, but not quite how the usual fairy tales go..... Cover by @slothtato

It's Cinderella... but gay. Who wouldn't want to read this?

Not every girl is Papa's Princess. Not every home is a sweet home. Not every marriage is an accomplishment of dreams. Not every tale is a fairytale.

Every time you wake up... a different story begins... but they're different from how they should be... all stories must come to an end. Remember, every story has a path to follow. There's no fighting a bad ending.

Fairy tales for young and old ~ English version by Valy_GC

A few stories that I sometimes enjoy writing. It will therefore not be one, but several short stories. Remember they are fairy tales, for kids and for dreams. Yes it's short. Yes it's not realistic. That's what a fairy tale is...
