OK. This is really silly.
Ya know that book that I am doing called Learn to Write the Novel Way? Well it was having me practice this thing of identifying the characters and setting and the basic conflict and all that stuff, basically a synopsis of a book, and it said a fairy tale would be easy. Well, I decided to do Sleeping Beauty. Not the Disney version, But the original.
I thought that you might like to see the finished work. Just please don’t break any ribs, like my mom and sister almost did. And in case none of you can tell after reading this; I detest romance! Some of you may never see Sleeping Beauty the same again.

Sleeping Beauty
Characters/Setting: Sleeping Beauty, The prince, an old Kingdom, an old castle.

Basic conflict (predicament, dilemma, or problem): An evil witch puts on a curse on a baby princess, saying that when she turns 16, she’ll get poked and fall asleep and the whole kingdom will also fall asleep. The only good thing is that a fairy said that it will only last 100 years.

The moment of climax (and where my sugar high began to really kick in!): Well, wouldn’t you know, when that beautiful princess turned 16, she put her finger on something poky (wouldn’t that figure) and she liked to drop dead along with the whole rest of the kingdom.

The resolution: Finally, 100 years later, some handsome prince comes along, cuts through all the weeds, and wanders around till he finds a beautiful dusty princess that he thinks he just has to kiss. Well, he kisses her (after romantically blowing off 100years of dust) and her pretty, 116 year old eyelids pop open and she sees that handsome prince and they kiss some more and the whole kingdom wakes up and realizes what had happened. (And if it would have been me, knowing my luck, they would have gained up on me and disowned me from my princess hood for poking my finger!)

The conclusion: The prince and the princess get married and live happily ever after… soon as they dust every thing off and clear out the weeds.

The End
