check out my perfect princess
This made my day. And the day after that. And it will make tomorrow, too. So I wanted to share it with everyone. This is ETDC reader Laurie Skelton‘s response to my post about how the pretty princesses we’re exposed to growing up never seem to have big noses. Or flat chests and big butts. Or very much that reminds me of myself at all, actually. This princess, created by Laurie, clearly has her priorities straight:
Her blog is here. Her tumblr is here. She is fantastic and I love her forever for this.

Unroast: Today I love the way I look in little strappy sandals. Or barefoot, vanquishing the dragons that try to keep me from my cupcakes.

i’m sure you’ve seen this, but i just found it and couldn’t agree more with her description of your writing. i’ve been following your blog from the very beginning and am moved by every post. even the posts about dragon-slaying, big-nosed princesses.

That dragon looks happy to be dead… maybe he’s just… sleeping? not slayed? eh…?
