Thanks so much to all who posted here.
Y'all take your fairytales very seriously. I've always tended to believe that fairytales were violent because that was what was popular in entertainment during that time period. If you look at the television, movie and radio stories which were popular in the middle of the twentieth century, it's obvious that most of them would not be nearly as popular 50 years later and vice versa. Some of that, of course, has to do with a society that pushes limits, but much of it also has to do with changing ideas of entertainment.
Anyway, thanks so much for all of this. I'll get to writing as soon as my Kerth nominations list is complete.
