Discover a collection of fairy tales unlike the ones you've read before . . . Once upon a time, in the middle of winter, a King sat at a window and sewed. As he sewed and gazed out onto the landscape, he pricked his finger with the needle, and three drops of blood fell onto the snow outside. People have been telling fairy tales to their children for hundreds of years. And for almost as long, people have been rewriting those fairy tales - to help their children imagine a world where they are the heroes. Karrie and Jon were reading their child these stories when they hit upon a dilemma, something previous versions of these stories were missing, and so they decided to make one vital change.. They haven't rewritten the stories in this book. They haven't reimagined endings, or reinvented characters. What they have done is switch all the genders. It might not sound like that much of a change, but you'll be dazzled by the world this swap creates - and amazed by the new characters you're about to discover.

In 2010 he made the website 'Slap Nick Griffin' which registered over 25 million slaps in 4 days. It was followed by 'Slapometer' which allowed voters to register their disdain for the general election candidates by slapping their least favourite. The candidates received 91 million slaps and the site was praised by The Wall Street Journal, The Times, The Telegraph, Channel 4 and ITN. He created the 'Draw and Fold Over' website for The Campaign for Drawing, which allowed friends to play 'exquisite corpse' together online. Over 400,000 visitors have played.
