The
Slightly eccentric A to Z blogging adventure of unknown and rather unpopular
Modern fairy tales
2013
E Esmeralda and Edward
Esmeralda was an ENCHANTED electric eel who lived in
the Emperors Elaborately enamelled pond
encrusted with emeralds (the pond not the eel). But one day Edward the Egret landed and said I spy with my little Eye .
. . . . . . DINNER
And
ate Esmeralda the ENCHANTED ELECTRIC eel all up
The
End . . . . . . .
AH
DAMN . . . . . that was a bit short, which strangely is exactly what Edward the
Egret said after eating Esmeralda.
.
Ohh, I like this approach. I did fairy tale studies in college so the rest are sure to interest me, bookmarking for certain!
ReplyDeleteI had to do electronics and mechanics at college so fairy tales were not my strong point, well then nether were electronics and mechanics or as it turned out loads of other stuff. But luckily over the many years since I have discovered I am very skilled at messing about and making cardboard sculpture, and these days writing rubbish although I still cant spell or type.
DeleteI hope my intrepid journey to Z does not disappoint you.....
Awesome stories. I love fairy tales and modern re-tellings. "I spy with my little Eye . . . . . . . DINNER" LOL. You crack me up!
ReplyDeleteIt was a very short tale today, it was not the original plan but somehow it seemed like the perfect way to end it. Sort of before it all got going.
DeletePoor Esmeralda, no happily ever after for her!
ReplyDeleteSadly not; a case of Eel today gone tomorrow. . . . ..HAH HAHAHH AHh ah hah ah hah ahh ah ahhah ah hah ah ha.
DeleteLuckily no one is eaten tomorrow but I will warn all that G involves the eating of the entire cast, sort of.... Such is the way of Fairy Tales.
Excellent.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks, a good use of a good E word I quite agree, HAH HAHHAH HAH HAH ha hahhah ahhh ha hah h ahh ha hah
DeleteLOL I love that you're writing these little stories as your theme for the A to Z challenge and I especially adore the illustrations you've done to go with them. Awesome.

The drawings are kind of happening lying in bed at the end of the day thinking O DAMN I need a drawing for the morning, what letter is it.
DeleteAnd you are very king bearing in mind I cant draw that well..... Well not in bed with a cat sat on my head, which is what is happening at present.
Very awesome use of E!
ReplyDeleteYou are very kind, but it is a very short little story.
DeleteE-larious.
ReplyDeleteI am short on words and time today .....
Thanks Mr ESB I too was a bit short on words but I got away with it PHEW....
DeleteIf I did my math correctly, I think you averaged 1.8636 e's per E word, which smashed aLL together gives us a new E word: espereword
DeleteI am pleased with that, I think this must mean all is going to plan.
DeleteThe lil man is a bit bummed that Mr E got to use the word 'E-larious', before he did.
ReplyDeleteVery short but sweet, as was Esmeralda. :)
Tell the Lil man that Mr ESB is a very clever man, and if they both thought of the same word then the Lil man is very clever. A very useful asset when you are considering taking over the world.
DeleteAnd of course Mr ESB is still the only American member of RATs, in fact at present there are still just the five members.
As for Esmeralda like her name sake Esmeralda who was eaten by the goat and returned unharmed (sort of) and slightly bionic, one should never say die.... As Vera Lynn once sung "Eel eat again don't know where don't know when" HAH HAHHAH HAHh ahh ah hahahh ha hah hahah hahah ha hahah hahaha
Oooooo yes one other thing no one has noticed, the link to a well known British winter Olympian from the past. . . . . . Eddy the Egret ....... HAH HAH HAH HAH AH HAH AH AH HAH AH AH HAH AH AH AH AHHAH HAH ah ahah hah ah ah hahh
DeleteBut being an E man I have tEndEnc-eeee to think and sEE e's with ease.
DeleteHahahahahahaha ... ha
WHAT?!?!? We are taking over the world? (So now I am having Pinky and The Brain thoughts -MOIP- switching my voice back and forth between the two mouse characters - NARF!!! - )
DeleteYou are OK Mr ESB it is Master Lil man who is planning to take over the world. He is still quite young and not only has to deal with the normal everyday issues involved with taking over the world. But has the added problems of being sent to his room by his mum (Miss Lily), not ideal when working on a master plan for world domination.....
DeleteI had to think for a few seconds about the ease of your E comment but my brain did then work it all out. I am not a natural user of E words.
EFFORTLESSLY ENLIGHTENING. :)
ReplyDeleteOoooooooo You have a way with words Mr H. You get a day off from all this on Sunday to do other stuff instead......
DeleteIts nice to see a cluster of RATs; WELL COOL
Excellent!!
ReplyDeleteHugs!

Thanks for the E word, I have had a little peek at your blog and am following for the present. I am fickle you see and some blogs change after the A to Z.
DeleteGood Luck getting to Z
Well, how impolite of Edward the Egret; fancy landing in someone else's home and devouring them!
ReplyDeleteReally enjoying your A-Z theme by the way :)
It was ever such in the world of Fairy Tales.
DeleteAnd good luck getting to Z
Enchanted electric eel - I love it! :)
ReplyDeleteSadly it was not quite enchanted enough to avoid being eaten. Nature can be very cruel.
