Random thoughts are a given for most people. For writers they’re source material—the answer to the oft-asked question, “What inspired this story?” Here’s one of those stray thoughts that crept in during a sleepless night.
What were Snow White’s first thoughts when she woke up? Aside from the obvious—who’s this guy?
“What’s your name?”
“Prince Charming. You?”
“Snow White, so at least we have one thing in common.”
“What’s that?”
“Our parents were crap with names.”
Also…
What’s the proper amount of gratitude? Can I get away with, ‘Thanks, I owe you a drink,’ should I ask my miner friends for a small cache of silver and gold for this guy, or is this one of those ‘I am forever in your debt’ deals?
We all know what she chose.
And there’s always a third thought. Was it for her stepmother? Did I really fall for another costume change? Was it for her lost kingdom? O.M.G. what’s the address? Or was it something completely random? Did I leave a pot on the stove before I DIED?
These are the kinds of thoughts that can keep a girl up at night!
What do you think her first three thoughts were?
