Once upon a time, authors and artists gathered from the four corners of the globe, drawn together by the same vision. A vision of a happier ever after for abuse victims everywhere. Join those creative souls for the next installment of the Cliches for a Cause anthology series, as they take you on a journey through the land of fairy tales. While not all of these stories end happily, we hope you will find a little joy in knowing all proceeds from this anthology will benefit the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN).

Charming and fun is how I would describe this fresh, unique collection of stories! The collection has everything from traditional fables to those with a Punk flavor!
Clever tales of loyal (to the death) servants, misunderstood.long-suffering Sea Witches— and Cyborgs! Woot! All the stories were well written and flowed smoothly, plus there were plenty of twists, turns and surprises! I recommend for those who love Paranormal,Fantasy fiction as well as Myths, Legends and Fairy-tales!
All proceeds benefit RAINN— Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network
