Why do you tell stories? :)

Are there any extra-special Fairyland related thingies planned for the month of September? B/c, y'know, it's September!

For you, do poetry and prose have different "roots" or methods of inspiration, or are they much the same apart from their appearance (verse vs. paragraphs)?

When reading The Labyrinth or your recent "Borges" Omikuji, I feel strongly as if those pieces could be turned directly into poems if they were only taken out of prose form and broken up into lines. The use of words seems very "poem-ish." But over time, your prose seems to have solidified into something less vague and wild, even though the word choice is still very creative. Hopefully this makes sense. :)

How did the Marquess become so cruel, and where did she come from? (Hope asking 2 questions is OK!) ^_^

There will be, I promise. Worldcon just messed me up. But they'll be up before the end of the week.
