Timeless 2: Anthology of Re-Imagined Fairy Tales

[labingi]

Pleased as punch to have my Peter Pan story "Lila" featured in this lovely anthology of re-imagined fairytales, Timeless 2 from Dragon Soul Press, coming out November 30.

It has long been an ambition of mine to write a Peter Pan fan fic, and it's very gratifying to see that come to fruition in this book.

Congratulations!

Do you know if they plan to release a print edition?

[labingi]

You know, I am told that there is/will be a print version but I'm dashed if I know how to find it. It may not be out yet. I will inquire. Thanks for your interest!

Sorry for a long lag time on replying to this: The paperback appears to be out now.

I read your short story "Lila" in the Timeless Anthology and I absolutely loved the ending. I have always been worried about Peter since the day I knew of the story. Even if I used to think he is a little psychopath, I still felt disturbed. It reminded me of my own lost things and my lost pieces. But I do feel that the ending was kind of redeeming for me. I enjoyed reading it. I hope you get to write more stories like this.
A huge thump up!

Thank you so much for reading "Lila," and again, sorry for my very tardy reply. Peter Pan is an interesting figure for me too. He is a bit of a psychopath--well, sociopath maybe: "heartless," as Barrie puts it. But I always thought the tension between joy and tragedy in his eternal childhood is fascinating, and I've always wondered what would happen when time catches up with him.
