Among the elements of fairy tales such as that they include magical elements and a good versus evil theme is the fact that they often teach some sort of lesson or contain a moral. When writing an original fairy tale, start with a traditional moral that you might find in one of the classic fairy tales. For example, one could write an original fairy tale using the moral from "Little Red Riding Hood" which could be to never take advise from strangers. Other fairy tale morals that could be used to write an original tale include "Never make promises you can't keep," "Be true to yourself," "Always build on a solid foundation," or "Do not always believe others, think for yourself." Most fairy tales as stated, have a theme of good versus evil so one other moral that most fairy tales include in general is that "In the end, good will always win out over evil."
