Here are all the fairy tales I can think of:
Sleeping Beauty
Cinderella
Snow White
Rapunzel
The Snow Queen (the original version of FROZEN before Disney)
Beauty and the Beast
Pinocchio
Hansel and Gretel
Thumbelina and Tom ThumbI know there are more, but not the basic ones. Wikipedia has a List of Fairy Tales page.

Thank you, @mark-kamibaya! That was very helpful; same to you, @jess. By family, I mean who are their parents, what happened to the parents and what significance are the parents to the character and the story, and does the character have any siblings?
Jess, That has been added to the list! Thank you! -

@mark-kamibaya: Haven’t read McKee yet, but he’s rather high on my reading list. Hopefully I’ll be able to get to his book soon. Since I’m not as familiar with competing structures, because of how broad the three act structure is, my view tends to be that most stories work well with following that basic structure, albeit with certain tweaks…[Read more]

I like it, @anne-of-lothlorien. However, I feel like something is missing. If you’re going for darker, then it needs to BE darker. (Ask someone more experienced with poetry for help there. 🙂 ) Right now I feel like it’s a little whimsical, and if that’s what you’re going for, great job! (You could use Daeus’s idea to make it even more so.)

So this is a poem I made up for a picture I saw on a friends website. I just made it up on the spot then, but now I’m thinking of writing a short story about it. It’s an evil poem really, written from the POV of the bad girl. But I just wanted any advice and to see if you like it…

@Daeus – Thank you, and it is very similar. I was actually in Ohio for three weeks in July helping my aunt. Could I have that ice cream? I haven’t had any in two days!
@Dragon Snapper – I might have a spare crown or necklace or two I could give you. Though Robin prefers giving the gold to the poor and ailing, not dragons. But I might be able to…[Read more]

Aww, man. I so wish I could, but I can’t right now. I have to go to bed early to get up early tomorrow, and I’m getting over being sick. 🙁 Hope you find some company, though! 🙂 Can I… *glances at chocolate*…y’know…have some…*inches toward chocolate*…chocolate?

@bluejay Ooo, I like the story idea! And like @christi-eaton said, it does remind me a bit of Inkheart. 🙂 You will let me read it when you’re finished, won’t you? 😉

Maybe everyone has doubles of themselves and that they can see. The first group of people are following their ‘act’s then the second group of people is delayed in what they are doing.

Yah, I just missed dying too. That’s why I asked for a special order of ice cream. Anybody here who hasn’t read Blank Mastermind, go to @writefury‘s website and starting at part one, read the best serial story I have ever read.

Okay, so I have no idea how you guys make your characters, but if I don’t write something down, it doesn’t exist. In light of that, I have a list of character’s appearances and traits that I use for all my protagonists. I posted them for two reasons: the first is simply to share them with any other visual learners and the second is to see if I’ve…[Read more]
