The Vision of Prince Frederick

Today’s treasure from the archives is “The Vision of Prince Frederick,” a fairy tale of a man who discovers his true love and waits for her return.

Okay, when I put it like that, it sounds rather blase. Let’s try again:

“The Vision of Prince Frederick” is a fairy of a man with a vision that cannot possible be real, and yet he waits for it anyway.

Better?

This story actually made its debut as a story-within-a-story in A Girl Called Snort, a novel I serialized online and that is still awaiting true publication. “The Vision of Prince Frederick” stands quite well on its own, though. Take a few minutes and read it. I think you’ll enjoy. Hopefully, it’ll make you long for something that isn’t quite there.
