Fairy tales opened up a door into my imagination - they don't conform to the reality that's around you as a child. I started reading when I was three and read everything, but I wanted to be an actress.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My parents read me fairy tales every night and I used to believe I was a fairytale princess, like every young girl. I had all the Disney dressing-up costumes and would play every character.
My parents told me any and every fairy-tale from all around the world. I usually gravitated towards ones with interesting, strong heroines.
As a child, I loved fairy tales because the story, the what-comes-next, is paramount. As an adult, I'm fascinated by their logic and illogic.
As I read more and more fairy tales as an adult, I found massive collusion between their 'subjects' and those in my fiction: childhood, nature, sexuality, transformation. I realized that it wasn't by accident that I was drawn to their narrative structure and motifs.
I loved fairy tales growing up.
I loved fairy tales as a kid, so that's where my mind gravitates.
As a child, I loved story books and wanted to be in them so desperately and live the stories.
In kindergarten that used to be my job, to tell them fairytales. I liked Hans Christian Andersen, and the Grimm fairy tales, all the classic fairy tales.
I never grew up reading or fantasizing about fairy tales. I was always too busy, like, outside being a kid.
I didn't like fairy tales when I was younger. I found a lot of fairy tales scary. They really didn't sit well with me.
