These are the fairy stories. No, they don’t necessarily comply with Tolkien’s description. No, they are not necessarily final drafts. Yes, I am a bit of a dork.
The Inheritance (is no longer set to “private”)

The sky is high. The Czar is far.
your stories are lovely.
i read every single one of them :]
Thank you.
I loved the BLunt Mirror. Look forward to reading the others. You’re fantastic.
The detail about the general not noticing details that weren’t of tactical importance blew me away — as did the way the mirror at the opening with the hare — reflects into the story’s opening at the end.
Moved me to tears.
Some lines by GOdard, I think or maybe he’s quoting: We disappear into the world like shadows in a mirror, while centuries gather at the horizon like strange storms.
Rilke’s sonnets to Orpheus too
But the story’s completely your own in your singular voice. You inspired me. Thank you.
You’ve got me thinking of all the mirrors I’ve ever experienced in my literary life –
