marycatelliWorking on a legend (which is going to include a vital clue for our heroine).
Realized that with a twelve-year-old heroine, I probably want to shift it from the legend I was ripping off somewhat closer to the fairy tale in the same vein. . .
Fortunately when telling a story about a queen slandered and driven from court, the legends and fairy tales form a continuum. Keep that the problem is the king's male cousin, switch it from his attempt to seduce to his resentment that the king hadn't married the cousin's daughter. . .
