The End of Fairy Tale Spotlight

I don't even remember how long I have been using the title tag "Fairy Tale Spotlight" for. I guess I could go look it up, but I'm fine with not knowing. The point was that I was using it whether or not it was about fairy tales. The whole thing started off being about fairy tales, but it just ended up becoming a glorified book, movie, and video game review blog. That's what it's going to keep being too.

Don't get me wrong; I love fairy tales. I have read just about all of the most well-known classics. I read every single blasted one of the Oz books. I did my best to review each one as I went through the list. Those were the times when calling this blog "Fairy Tale Spotlight" was more relevant. But I used it for everything, basically branding this blog as such when it often had nothing to do with the topic. I'm ending that now.

Granted, it wasn't hurting anybody. And in some small way, it can still be rationalized to be true. There is an argument for the entirety of history being a sort of fairy tale. I even reviewed every book of the "Holy Bible" under this branding. Sure. Absolutely. Why not? It's not perfectly wrong. It's only slightly wrong... which means it's also slightly right.

But the real reason I want to put an end to it is far sillier. I just want to stop having to type it in every time. I'd rather just write down what the blog is about and then... write the blog. After all, the blog is really actually called "T.K. Wade - Author." It's my blog.

From there, I'm just going to keep reviewing things. I might write an opinion thing here and there about whatever, but what I don't want to do is just go on and on about worldly nonsense. If you want that, you can go on YouTube and just fill your brain with as much of that trash as you want. I am also not going to go very deeply into myself other than my opinions about the stuff I read. Those reviews are there to kind of help you get an idea of stuff I find out in the wild. The only way you'll truly know what they are would be if you looked them up yourself. I can only give subjective hints.

My recommendations come from finding a majority of pros in contrast to cons. I always try and find the good in things, and I'd say that, most of the time, there is enough good to be considered for a recommendation. Heck, I even found a solid two good things in "Snow White (2025)," but the cons outweighed them very heavily. Such things are pretty rare. The majority of what I have seen was well worth my time, and I am very glad for time spent with them.

So while I may be ending the branding of "Fairy Tale Spotlight" and simply just letting my blog be a blog, I am still going to be doing what I have always been doing. I am going to keep exploring all the nooks and crannies of the creative world and giving you my opinion on it as well as a possible recommendation. Nothing is really changing. I'm just freeing myself from a branding that didn't really make much sense for the last bunch of years.

And with that, I am ready to move on. Three words that I just don't have to type anymore... and an endless supply of literature to read, enjoy, and review until I can't do it anymore. Sounds like a good time to me.

  1. Detective Comics is now DC and Kentucky Fried Chicken is now KFC. You are rebranding without rebranding... for the better.
