Week 14 Reading Part A: Russia: The Water Snake

Russian Fairy Tales: The Water Snake. W. R. S. Ralston (1887).

I could do a lot with this story.  I think I'd want to change the mother to an ex boyfriend that's crazy, or maybe a deranged best friend that has a tendency to be clingy. I still want the new husband to die and I want the main girl to feel all sad because he does. Instead of them calling his name, they'll call his phone on hers. Maybe she should be drugged or something so she can't get to him. I don't know if I'd keep the kids, that complicates things a little bit... Maybe I'll make them into dogs.
