HannibalEverAfter#2017: Little Red Riding Hood

The beginning of the story kind of wrote itself on the page quite politely. It was something of a shock actually, because I was having this mental image of Hannibal as Red Riding Hood, which I did eventually repurpose into the 8th scene. But this did fight me to come alive, and it was a bit of a learning curve to drive and be driven. Sometimes I had to pad out and sometimes I was led. 

I don’t think I quite have the grasp of voices correct, more than anything it feels like I’m using my writing style as a vehicle to carry where I think we should be going haha. It was kind of a surprise to me when the story wanted itself told in past/present scenes and I feel like I did a good balance of pairing them up.
