In honor of National Poetry Month, I am going to continue the tradition I started last year, and do a mini-series of posts on poets and poetry. There will be one post each week. Paid subscribers will receive all of them, and unpaid subscribers will have access to half.

I can’t remember a time when I didn’t love fairy tales. I wanted to read them all. It’s one of the first things I remember specifically looking for in the public library when I was a kid – the collections of fairy tales from around the world, the collected Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen versions. As I grew older I started looking for retellings, new versions. I loved the anthologies that Ellen Datlow and Terri Windling edited immensely, and tracked down novel-length retellings as well.
