Name: Fractured Fairy Tale

__Why I am interested: __  I love fairy tales. They always bring me back to my childhood. They invoke both the imagination of the writer and reader. I am most interested in doing a fractured fairy tale, because I would love to take a classic princess story like Cinderella, Beauty and the Beast, or Sleeping Beauty and give it an interesting twist by changing its directed audience. I would very much like to add a Grimm-esque feature back into the modern versions.

__What I know about fracture fairy tales: __ The fractured fairy tale genre works much like its derivative genre. It is expressive, allegorical, and is meant to teach a lesson. However, with a fractured fairy tale you take a classic fairy tale and you changes elements such as audience, plot, character roles, setting, and point of view. This allows for a classic story to take on a whole new meaning and personality. The most important thing is to have strong characters who support the changes to the scheme of a well known story.

== I've always enjoyed these, and they work by following the fairy tale genre up to a point. I'm not sure where you find collections of these, since I recall them from TV, but I assume you have some ideas. Write several of them (3-4?) ==
