If you write a story here

[Elsie]

Make sure it is short,
One line, maybe only two
Or it will go poof!

Elsie, did a story of yours go missing or something?

Hope not ...

Sometimes, when story telling, it's easy to get caught up in crafting beautiful sentences and creating a flow of ideas. You can lose sight of the bigger picture, or what the story is really about. In those moments, it's worth asking. “What am I actually trying to say?” Try to boil everything down to the simple, underlying concept. Write really basic sentences to reflect that concept, you can always come back and embellish later, if you think that the storyline needs it.

She knocked on the door of the house she’d only seen in dreams and waited for someone to remember her.

Once upon a time there was a little girl who's Daddy told her every day, that she was a Princess. When she became of age, she married a Prince, only to find that he was really a toad....and she was never actually a Princess at all.
