This will be the introduction to my book.

Once this semester is over, I plan on getting work together to make an E-Book of twisted fairy tales, as I have several written or mostly-written. They range from the comical to the horrific, as you've seen if you read my blog at all. There are a few I've not posted here, nor do I intend to. I don't plan on making the e-book very expensive, just for the record. This is the poem I will use for my introduction:

"Once upon a time," said she,
Putting a hand beneath my chin.
She smiled a dreadful smile at me.

"Man wrote himself a history
A place to keep the monsters in
Once upon a time," said she.

She hissed, "All things strive to become free
What's put down will rise again."
Then smiled a dreadful smile at me.

"One day they will find the key
And come against the world of men,
Once upon a time," said she.

"There will be poisoned apples on every tree
And all the witches and wolves will win."
She smiled a dreadful smile at me.

"Man should learn to think more wickedly
Or all his stories will begin
With once upon a time," said she,
Then smiled a dreadful smile at me.

P.S. I will want a few people (probably no more than 3-4) to proof and edit the book before publication. Just putting that out there.
