Announcing the Fairy Tales Contest!

So I’ve had a couple of ideas for how to get my Prince to disguise himself as a commoner in my Cinderella story, please will you tell me what you think:

  1. He disguises himself as his manservant when they are away from the palace so that he doesn’t have people harassing him.

  2. He dresses in “commoner clothes” every so often so he can get a feel for what people think of his and his family’s ideas for the country.

I think idea 1 is the one I can pull off more, what do you think? Or do you have any other ideas?

Haa good guess, but no. I’m doing a short horror based on Jabberwocky.

I like the 2nd one. Gives him a good sense of responsibility as a future monarch

She did say you can do crossovers. So like elements of one fairytale cross over to another. Almost like Shrek or Once Upon a time. (Just don’t copy the concepts of those two examples lol )

Since it’s the weekend and she’s probably not working this late, I’ll answer you. lol
Yes you can put what your story is based on. Yes you can put it like that, it doesn’t matter really.
If that’s for your cover, yes. Also you can put it on the inside instead/ also if you like.
I hope that answers your question.
