Catherine gets Bianca by offering her a pie laced with nuts, causing Bianca anaphlyactic shock. So her glass case is the intensive care unit. Her handsome prince is the doctor who prescribes adrenaline...I quite liked it anyway...Virginia Moffatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071059148315715405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454608135549582321.post-81392468099998412782010-03-22T10:07:29.270-07:002010-03-22T10:07:29.270-07:00Love this modern Snow White story.

I wrote this ...Thanks folks for all the comments. <br /><br />I wrote this one a while ago in the third person. It was only when I put into 1st I felt it had some legs. Perhaps, because I rather identify with Catherine (horrible as she is). Reaching a certain time of life as my daughters are about to grow up in a big way, makes me really get the whole evil stepmother fairy tale!Virginia Moffatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12071059148315715405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5454608135549582321.post-21708254677719865152010-03-21T14:48:52.861-07:002010-03-21T14:48:52.861-07:00'Pepper juice' - I can't decide it thi...'Pepper juice' - I can't decide it this would be deliciously refreshing or disgusting!<br /><br />And what a story. Ageing like this is graceless in one way or another. Catherine has grown a carapace, plumped and numbed it with toxins and fillers, and inside all that is left is a husk.<br /><br />I like this - it is like a fairy story.<br /><br />Ha!

The character is, well, sad, and yet evil in her own way. She should let herself go like the rest of us.
