Time to beat the drums and enjoy the anticipation of a 10th Story Crossroads theme reveal as part of the A to Z Blog Challenge (http://www.a-to-zchallenge.com) that happens throughout the month of April. These are 26 postings for each of the letters of the alphabet (with rest on Sundays). We accept the challenge…again.
AND THE THEME IS…

THEME: Fantastic Females in Folk & Fairy Tales
We are women…or at least the whole Story Crossroads Board are women at this time. We witness many wonderful women making a difference in the world. Perhaps some were even inspired by folk and fairy tale characters. While there is the “damsel in distress” phrase out there, we want to blow that out of the waters, beyond the dragon’s mouth, and miles away from any tower.
We are excited to share who we feel can be an inspiration for today through stories that are hundreds or even centuries old.
We do love men, too. Though, there are plenty of stories that feature men heroes. It’s time for female heroines to shine up the weapons of wit, warmth, and…wackiness. Yes, really. See what we mean soon.
So no matter your gender, this will be a journey full of adventures. Join us starting April 1, 2024.
As for our past A to Z Challenges…

Looks like you are lucky last on the list. I’ll be sure to check in on your posts about Fantastic Females!
Looking forward to following you again this year. As a fellow storyteller I’m always looking for new stories to lessen and pass on.
Sounds like an interesting theme! Good luck.
