Summarize this article in one sentence.
You may choose a theme like “identity,” “loss,” “sexuality,” or “family.” You can then explore this theme in your fairy tale. Pick a theme that you relate to personally or feel you can discuss from a unique point of view. For example, you may pick a theme like “family” and focus on your relationship with your sister. You can then create a fairy tale around the birth of your sister or around a childhood memory that involves your sister. Most fairy tales are set in a fantastic place that combines real life and magic. You may choose a setting like an enchanted forest or a cursed pirate ship. You can also choose a setting like your neighbourhood and add magical elements to it to make it more fantastical. For example, you may use your neighbourhood as a setting and include a talking tree by your house. Or you may make the setting futuristic by imagining what your neighbourhood might look like in 100 years. Most fairy tales begin with “Once upon a time…” or “Long, long ago…”. You can use the standard opening, or try to make your opening more unique. For example, you may start with, “There once was a girl…” or “In a futuristic land far, far away…”. Start by introducing characters or setting in the first line of the fairy tale. This will engage your reader right away and set the scene. Every fairytale has a hero or heroine that the reader can root for. A heroine is usually a normal person who changes or becomes powerful due to the events in the fairy tale. You can also give your heroine a special ability or power that helps them on their journey. For example, you may have a heroine who is a loner in high school. She could then get lost in a new part of town and meet a series of strange beings or magical creatures. Every fairytale also has a villain or a source of darkness. The villain could be a magical being or creature. It could also be a person who has more power than the heroine. The villain will be a source of conflict for the heroine and make it difficult for the heroine to achieve their goal. For example, you may have a villain who is a magical rabbit who hates humans. The villain could then make if difficult for your heroine to find her way out of town and get home. Most fairy tales are written to be accessible for all age groups, from young children to adults. Use language that is simple and easy to read. Avoid long, wordy sentences or complicated vocabulary. In fairy tales, the focus is usually on the characters, setting, and plot. Language is secondary to the magical elements of the story. The fairy tale should teach the reader something or provide a lesson. The moral does not have to be obvious or stated in the story. But the story should have a moral to share with the reader through the characters, plot, and setting. For example, you may have a fairy tale about a young girl lost in a new town with a moral about being open to meeting new people and accepting the differences of others. Fairy tales traditionally have a happy ending, where an issue or problem is resolved. Maybe the heroine gets what they want and they prevail over the villain. Or perhaps the villain learns a valuable lesson and decides to be good. Write a happy ending for the fairy tale so your reader can leave your story satisfied. For example, you may write a happy ending where the heroine finds her way home and spend time with her family, telling them of the strange characters she encountered on her journey.
