I too was really afraid of writing short-stories once, but then I wrote and got shortlisted for a short story two years back and I enjoyed the experience so much. This particular contest allows for a minimum of 5,000 words up to 20,000 which is more like a novella contest if anything else. The copyrights of the stories, royalties, prize money for winners, etc, is actually detailed on the Roogleswood website which might help :).<br /><br />But I know! I am a terrible procrastinator too, and so busy with my highschool studies. Also, I am reluctant to get sidetracked in another story when I want to focus on my WW2 novel WIP - however, Beauty and the Beast is my favorite fairytale, I love Anne Elisabeth's novels and think it would be fantastic to work with her. . . plus the opportunity of publication and having your story appear on such a gorgeous cover makes the temptation so much more appealing!!<br /><br />Oh yes, it sure is!

I am mulling over my WW2 retelling, but haven't gotten around to writing anything much yet. I hope your writing is coming along happily, dear Annie :).<br /><br />Yes! Beauty and the Beast is your favorite too? That is so nice that we share the same love for this story. I had been really hoping the contest would be this particular fairytale because I love it so much. <br /><br />Me too - this cover is so beautiful!! It inspires me just by looking at it :)<br /><br />Love you, dear! God bless :)Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14392427700183064027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1500941927081282397.post-52449753909102071812014-06-19T19:43:06.058+10:002014-06-19T19:43:06.058+10:00I just saw on your blog that you plan on writing a...I just saw on your blog that you plan on writing a beauty and the beast retelling story set in the 1920s of Germany. That would be simply wonderful! I am thinking of trying to write a WW2 era retelling of B&B if I can find the time!! <br /><br />It is exciting, isn't it?Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14392427700183064027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1500941927081282397.post-80933665709973321712014-06-17T18:44:04.563+10:002014-06-17T18:44:04.563+10:00I'm kiiiind of tempted, though I've never ...I'm kiiiind of tempted, though I've never actually written a short story before, and I'm not 100% sure on the rights aspect. *shrugs* I might look into it further, but, lol, I'm SUCH a procrastinator. I love that they're doing this again!
