'The Frog Prince' is a retelling of the Grimm Brothers classic of the same name reimagined with an LGBT cast of characters.
'The Frog Prince' is a short story following Prince Torsten as he learns the value of his word and the true meaning of friendship and the importance of trust.
As a child I loved fairytales and the worlds they depicted but even as a young man coming to terms with his sexuality, there was very little representation of LGBT characters in those old tales.
This work is just an experiment for now, testing the waters tentatively exploring the possibility of retelling some of those classic tales from an LGBT perspective. The 900 page complete collection of Brothers Grimm fairytales over which I have pawed has filled my childhood with fantasies and dreams of far off lands. I came to the realisation that since these tales are in the public domain they are open to reinterpretation.
I would like this to turn into a series of short stories based on those tales but how they are received will ultimately decide if I pursue. For now enjoy this classic with a modern twist!
