Cinderella Should Have Been A Superhero

Comments 12 comments

If you think about it, Cinderella is a character that many can connect with.  I’m not talking about being swept off your feet by Prince Charming (my hubby’s going to grin here), but I’m talking about housework!

I first met Roni Loren at a Dallas Fort Worth Writer’s Conference a few years ago when she was teaching a…
