This week in the Cold, we venture into our third episode focusing on the fairytale genre. Not only are we writing our own fairytale, using all of the common tropes we loved as kids, and let's face it, still fall for as adults, but we're trying to figure out just what makes each of these tropes so compelling. Probably the most popular trope of is the damsel in distress. Writing a damsel in distress is tricky business. Damsels must be beautiful, have a moral dimension, and a memorable backstory. Most often, they are cursed, so they come with a lot of trouble. In other words, this is going to be fun.
