Congratulations to Niki T, Lydia B, Olivia F, Faith T, and Jessica G! You won the giveaway of five bookmarks (handmade by me) that reflect some elements of Little Red Riding Hood that I used in Cloaked. Winners, I will be contacting you later today via the email address you supplied to the Rafflecopter widget. I'll need your mailing address so I can send you your bookmark, so please keep an eye out for that email! And everyone, thank you again for supporting me as I wrote, revised, and prepped Cloaked for publication. In case you hadn't heard, I'm already working on the next story for my Once Upon a Western collection -- a retelling of "Twelve Dancing Princesses" set in the Old West!
Thanks, Charity! There are a few others writing non-magical western retellings of fairy tales (I know Elisabeth Grace Foley has written two), but they're definitely not numerous, so I feel like it's a pretty non-crowded niche :-)
Comments on old posts are always welcome! Posts older than 7 days are on moderation to dissuade spambots, so if your comment doesn't show up right away, don't worry -- it will once I approve it.

I think these are cool ideas, Rachel. Western Retold Fairy Tales (minus the magic) is quite clever and unique.
