Her Version . . .

Once upon a time, in a place far, far away (davneum, davneum, davno) . . . lived a beautiful princess named Sasha. She loved to go into the woods and sit in the flower patches, and dream of her love to be.
One day, came along a hairy, strong beast of a man who claimed to be a nearby field-worker whose crops were the best in the land. His name was Mishka. He promised to love, cherish, and adore princess Sasha.
Princess Sasha accepted his proposal on one condition: if in fact his crops were the best in the land, she wanted him to bring her the biggest, juiciest, and most delicious tomato in his crops. If in fact he was telling the truth, he would not disappoint her. And so . . . Mishka went back to his crops, and for four long years, he grew tomato crops, perfecting them every season and growing the most beautiful red tomatoes this side of the world had ever seen. He then came back to the princess and gave her the ripe fruit of his labor.
Princess Sasha took a whiff of the ripe fruit and knew that Mishka was an honest man and a hardworking, determined worker. And they lived happily ever after.









THE END . . .

ok, it's your turn sasha. your story was good and i love the tomato plot/conflict. now we need to work on getting the scene right. you need to invest a bit more time into the description of the setting, the emotions, etc.

mischka gets the dog bone for his exceptionally executed story. i love you both, though. i'll try my darnest to come to see you, i promise. zhenia

If there is but a worthy maiden with honor and beauty abound, truly her name is Sasha! Let you go forth unto worlds unseen by the eyes of Men and bring you back that which thee seeks most. May the hand of a mighty warrior protect and watch over you during this quest. Do not forget those who travel not with thee, for we care much for the safe and happy return of you all!
