Rules for Writing the Princess

It’s me again! You know who.

Anywho, I have a post today for you about…

Rules for Writing the Princess by Briley Webb!

Exciting, huh? I like writing princesses—in fact, the first book I ever wrote was about twin princesses-turned-superheroes and a fairy.

***



Other people have been doing this, so why not follow the trend! Princess stereotypes!

How to be a Princess: A complete guide by Briley Webb.

  1. Extreme hair. Either you’ve cut it super short, or you’re a wannabe Rapunzel.

  2. You’re the most beautiful person in all the great land. You have no choice in this matter.

  3. You could fight a bear on steroids blindfolded, both hands tied behind your back, and with a club foot and win without a scratch on you!

  4. You get married to a lowly commoner in the end. Sure, you hated him in the beginning, and sure you’re not supposed to, but you did anyway.

  5. You climb out of windows on a daily basis. What good are you if you can’t? Well, I tried my best.

Briley Webb is a young author with a passion for words. While she dabbles in art, writing is her first love. She lives in the inspirational Rocky Mountains, where you’ll find her hiking, daydreaming, and practicing Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Her dream is to show light through the darkness through both her words and her art.

***

You certainly did, Bry, and this is amazing! I also like to think of princesses as those (according to Disney’s own rules in the iconic film Moana) who wear dresses and have an animal sidekick. (In the future, there will be a post on stereotypical animal sidekicks, so stay tuned!)

This made me grin. And of course the princess can marry the formerly hated commoner. She's a Princess lol! XD.

Haha, love it! Basically 98% of fairy-tale princesses are like this. I thought of at least four right away. My favorite fairy-tale princess is probably the little mermaid from the story by Hans Christian Anderson.

Great job, Briley!

Like, literally most of the Disney Princesses could fit with these stereotypes.

My favorite story book princess is probably Annie from The Wide-Awake Princess by E. D. Baker. She’s actually pretty un-stereotypical.


And awesome job, Briley!

Oh, I love that series! She is sort of un-stereotypical, but I've noticed a trend in princesses now being able to do anything. *fp*
