Woke Folk
Folk tales are traditional, nostalgic…and maybe just a bit predictable. The Sutton Bonington Campus Creative Writing Group invite you to try a new spin on some classic folk and fairy tales: what if the princess saves herself, or the evil queen wins—and what if she’s not so evil after all? What would a modern Icarus look like, and how would you get planning permission for a gingerbread house? With a variety of modern, subversive and dark twists, folk has gone woke—and these tales will never be the same…Twice Bitten rather than Once Upon a Time, take a second look from a modern perspective at twenty-one pieces of subverted folklore. From poetry to screen-play through a fractured mirror. Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.com in paperback and kindle. |

Teeth
A collaborative project was set up by Franklin E. Wales. Foreword: 'I originally challenged the authors at Lycan Valley Press to create a multi-authored werewolf short story during October of 2016.
