This Side of Neverland, a novel in progress, is a contemporary adaptation of J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan that follows the character of Wendy and targets the adult audience Barrie only winked at. Through associative logic, the nonlinear path to adulthood is explored with emphasis on the connections and interrelations that intersect and forge all stories into a collective tale of magic, mystery, sheer joy, and absolute heartache. Learning to fly is as exhilarating as it ever was!

“The intricate movements of the nonlinear plot structure and the shifts in narrative tone create a high-energy aura to the text. And the sheer quirkiness of the characters, especially Mr. Darling, is a pleasure, but its not a cheap pleasure. It encodes wise and compassionate comments about eccentricities.”—Janette Turner Hospital
