Upon a Time: A gift from me to you

R.L. Stedman's latest project makes a gift of a distinctly modern spin on the traditional fairy story.

I've written an EXPANDING series of short stories, called Upon a Time. These stories are based on fairy tales - but they're told with a twist. I have a mirror programmer (how do you define 'fairest', anyway?), a shoe salesperson and of course, a fairy Godfather.

Four times a year, I'm emailing an instalment to my readers. The first instalment was on Christmas and the second on Valentine's Day, which was all about roses. And love, of course! It's called Death and Roses, and was in two parts (with the second part being sent at Easter). The final instalment will be sent to reader's inboxes at Halloween.

So, if you're wanting to grab yourself a copy of this expanding series (you'll get the Christmas, Valentine and Easter ones, too), visit www.rlstedman.com to join the email list. You can choose between pdf, kindle or nook/itunes formats.

Oh, and if you're a teacher or librarian, please do feel free to copy and share these stories with your classes. The only thing I ask is that you retain the original formatting, as it is especially designed for these stories.

So that's it! May all your days be full of love.
