A Princess Novel
an excerpt

Once upon a time there was a cruel princess. She surrounded herself with sharp-tonged bitches in waiting. Their favorite sport was the emasculation of the suitor of the day. Nina is a thoroughbred woman. She stands like a pillar, each feature as cutting as a sculptor's chisel. Her hair is cut short, it is completely tamed with wax to stand on end in fierce needles. And yet, she is beautiful.
