				Thanks! I have a collection of very short stories (less than 140 characters each) coming out soon as well.

				Nice!  I especially like how you maintained the Arabian Nights feel of the original.

				Thanks  
 I have a story in the upcoming issue of The Enchanted Conversation (
http://www.fairytalemagazine.com), which I tried to give the feeling of an Arabian Nights version of a Western fairy tale (Rumpelstiltskin).
