398#12: The Candy Maker's Daughter

What is the secret ingredient to the Candy Maker's most delicious chocolates? Love. But since the death of his wife, his one true love, the Candy Maker has lost the ability to create his most special chocolates. When a foreign king demands the chocolates, the Candy Maker's Daughter takes it upon herself to go on a journey to find true love and save her father. But will her heart ever find what she is seeking? And will she make it back in time to save her father? 

398 is a litzine of fairy-tale-like stories by Elizabeth J. M. W.

398#12 is just one story: The Candy Maker's Daughter, but it is much longer than previous 398 stories. This zine is 1/2 sized, 44pages and text heavy.
