I’m Helen C. Johannes and I write fantasy romance. Fairy tales have fascinated me since I first played hide-and-seek in ruined castles and monasteries in Europe as a child. My treasured earliest remembered book was a collection of fairy tales I read and re-read until it fell apart at the seams. Beauty and the Beast and Cinderella, two of my favorites. I’ve included excerpts of both on today’s blog in earlier posts. Be sure to enter a comment for a chance to win one of them. It’s great to be here, and I’d love to hear from you.
