"All this he saw, for one moment breathless and intense, vivid on the morning sky; and still, as he looked, he lived; and still, as he lived, he wondered."

Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens

Talking animals, liminal magic, a Court of fairies where dancing is the most important part of life, and a small almost-human with a crisis of identity who’s trying to navigate it all. Compared to the much more famous Peter Pan and Wendy, I think this truly is Barrie’s masterpiece, and no one will ever be able to convince me otherwise.

I’m currently querying to find an agent for my Gothic Novel and, for each rejection I receive, I gift a free eBook to my supporters: I actually wanted this book to be the first one my Patrons were going to receive, but I wasn’t ready when we got our first faster-than-light rejection, so I had to opt for an Italian fairytale. What’s there to prepare, you ask? Well, at the end of the book I also included a commentary in 4 parts I wrote on the blog a while ago, and that needed editing. I hope you like it.

As usual, people in the first tier get the first chapter, while people in the middle and upper tiers get the whole book in PDF and ePub format.
