With a Bit of Fairy Dust

No matter on what continent you might be at this moment, both spring and autumn are times of change making you look at life and the world around you from a different perspective. So why can’t we look at The Silmarillion in a new way? This challenge gives you the opportunity to try and see how your favourite character would star in a fairy tale! Give it a try with the following fairy tale writing prompts as an example:

  • Cinderella refusing to marry a certain Noldor prince?
  • Little Red Riding Hood and the Carcharoth as best friends forever?
  • The Bremen Town musicians teaming up with Maglor?
  • How about Sleeping Beauty awaking early to a kiss from a Tolkien villain?
  • Snow White accidentally breaks the Silmarilli! What happens next??

Unleash your imagination by looking at fairy tales of old and mix them with Tolkien's own Mythopoeia. Or make up your own fairy tales featuring your own characters or such stories told by your characters!
