Brief Author Bio: Ever since learning to separate the creative function of storytelling from the manual demands of handwriting, Iliamna (aka, Amy Jane) has been enchanted by words. As a mother (and teacher) of three children and one dog, writing falls into the cracks, but has never completely crawled away. Though it will make some think I'm not serious enough, I confess I'd probably quit writing as soon as it stopped being fun or useful. But I've said that about showering too. |

Synopsis: The Water of Life
(If it happens: A novelization of the title folktale. I have a couple different versions to track down and read before/once I'm committed to the idea, but it will be:)
The tale of a youngest son, following directions his brothers despised. Winning the princess, and finding the water that will save his father's life. The foolish prince then ignores an accurate evaluation of his brothers' character and loses everything to them, jeopardizing his own life and the princess's freedom.
He and the princess must now stay alive and return to her castle before the year is out-- if they are to win the kingdom and have a chance of living happily ever after.
