Working book cover, not final so please no criticism because its subject to change!! This will probably be on AO3 and not actually physically published save for some posterity copies for close friends, but I’d like to share it anywho.
If you’re interested in a Peter Pan continuation with medium/low fantasy, an early 1920s vibe, historical references, magic vs modernity, some OCs, a dual narrative that switches between grown-up Wendy and her daughter Jane, family dynamics and drama, plus a dark take on what would happen to Neverland if the children stopped believing, maybe this is for you!
(This is not Evil Peter!!! Peter is treated neutrally!!)
London, 1919. The Neverland is out looking for you, but grown-ups can’t fly.
It’s been such a long time since the adventure.
The Lost Boys are all married men, who fought wars instead of pirates.
Wendy Darling is a real mother, with a moody daughter who longs for a change of scenery.
Children don’t believe in fairies all too much anymore.
Peter Pan is lonely, and things are changing in Neverland, so he decides to pay his former friends a visit. Taking Wendy’s daughter Jane and her cousin to see what the island has now become, it becomes clear that no one can escape their childhoods, no matter how long ago.
This is a complete reboot of a series I started when I was younger (SMQ) so if the plot sounds familiar that’s why. This is NOT SMQ and has little to nothing in common with the old SMQ stories.
Not affiliated with GOSH or Barrie and I am not making any money on this as of right now.
Also keep your eyes out for some character and OC bios on this blog, and feel free to send asks my way.
