    I started working in theatre, which led to film, and screenwriting and eventually to novels. I love fairy tales, myth and folklore so much of what I write stems from that. Everything I see becomes a muse, which is wonderful for me and terrifying for my friends. I love coffee, wine and music...and nachos. I have a terrible addiction to nachos and metal....music, not nachos.

      EVERMORE: SNOW FALLS

      By Caroline Metzlaff

      According to legend, she sat by the window embroidering, and her mind began to wander. And as her mind wandered, she accidentally pricked her finger. Three very large, very dark, drops of blood fell on her immaculate white silk dress, and as she watched the red stain spread quickly across her beautiful white dress, she made three very powerful wishes.

      The first wish was that she would have a daughter with skin as white as snow, the second: that the daughter would have lips as red as blood, and the third: that the child’s hair be black as ebony.

      Soon after that, Queen Allana of Rylak did indeed give birth to a beautiful baby girl with beautiful dark hair and eyes, pale skin and red buttercup lips. Now Queen Allana was a loving and beautiful queen, utterly adored by the entire country, and the papparazzi’s absolute favorite subject; so naturally, much about her was often romanticised and exaggerated, but she did in fact name her one and only daughter Snow. An unusual name to be sure, and it lent a certain amount of credence to the oft repeated, now legendary tale. The nation ecstatically celebrated the birth for weeks, and Snow’s birthday became a national holiday.

      Five years later Queen Allana, the ‘Fairest of them all’, mysteriously died in her sleep, leaving a devastated husband, the dashing King Roland, a lost and confused little girl, and an entire continent to mourn.

      The loss of the beautiful and vibrant Queen Allana, had been more than the country of Rylak could bare, and a terrible grief hung heavily around the hearts of the populace, but none as heavy as that which shrouded the hearts of King Roland and his sweet little Snow. Hallways that had once rang with laughter, fell heartbreakingly silent as Castle White, once a hub of joyful entertainment, became a dark and painful fortress; its gleaming white stone allowed to darken, and thorny vines threaded their way up the towers.

      And then it happened that King Roland was saddled with a visit from King Leopold and Queen Sylvia of the neighboring kingdom of Lonstas. Under the guise of discussing
