I pray the New Year has been kind to everyone!
The competition was close, but the judges have FINALLY chosen the winners of the What’s Your Favorite Fairy Tale contest.
CONGRATULATIONS Rhonda Jackson Joseph and Maria Velazquez
Let’s see what the winners had to say.
My favorite fairy tale is Cinderella. I love how Cinderella is able to just be herself and good things still come to her. When her fairy godmother
helps her out, she is only bringing out the beauty, charm, and grace that Cinderella has inside her. Without riches or family support she is
able to win the prince for a lifetime of love--you can't beat that. I also like how her stepsisters have the money and their mother backing them
all the way, but because they are "ugly inside," they don't prosper. —Rhonda Jackson Joseph
My favorite fairy tale is the one about Rapunzel. I always felt bad for the witch; she makes me think of those crazy older people who have
nothing in their lives but their memories and their anger, and who never learned how to love others without hurting them. —Maria Velazquez
Both ladies will receive a $25 gift certificate to Amazon.com, Barns and Noble or Borders.
I’d like to thank everyone who participated in the contest. This was really fun. If you’d like, send me an email (deatri@deewrites.com), and I’ll
post your answer on my website. There were a lot of great replies. No wonder it took the judges so long to decide.
For those of you who have purchased my contemporary romance version of Beauty and the Beast—thank you, and thank you for the emails
with your comments. I’m truly touched that so many have been able to relate with Nefertiti and Bruce and love their story.
Stay in touch. My next novel, Ebony Angel, hit's the shelves in a few weeks and I'm thinking of a contest to run.
Much Joy Peace and Love
