Frosty Needs HELP!
 
hey guys, well im writing this collection of fairytales...and im adapting them for adults so they are lot more scary, gory, sexual and erotic then the originals and i was wondering if anyone knew of any good sites that had information on writing horror and/or fairytales...i just need some tutorials and suggestions to kick start things...i need to get one book finished so i can send it off to my publisher.

thanks

Yeah right. as if i'll tell you my ideas so you can go make money off it..
Um since this is a horror site,... are the fairy tales gonna be horror like? cause if they are heres a hint. sexual erotic type horror stories = zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz's man thats whats killed off the vampire genre. thats my opinion

LadyFrost 01-04-2007 02:32 PM

well thanks for the opinion...but not all the stories are going to be sexualy active...some maybe but not all...and with stories like Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty and the such there will have to be some erotic exposure if you want it to be different from the original....
but im going more for gore and gothic scaryness then anything else

Have you ever read the original, uncut Grimm tales? Some of them get pretty dark and violent. Also, check out Strewelpeter for some ideas.
