This is a fairy tale I wrote in the style of the Grimm brothers and Hans Christian Anderson. I've always been a huge fan of Old World fairy tales and really tried to capture the spirit of them here. I'll leave up to you whether or not I succeeded. The central theme here mostly revolves around the realities of getting older and the lengths to which some people may go to cling to their youth. Come to think of it, that's been a recurring theme in most of my short fiction, haha. Perhaps I'm just as freaked out about getting older as my characters XD Anyway, I hope you enjoy. This is Lady of the Loom. :)
