Reclaiming dark fairy tales is how we survive.
My thesis for The Haunted Pulpit is live: Re-telling these stories breaks their original curses.
Featured reading list inside, including Rebel Folklore and Tales from the Hinterland. Come wander the woods.

Went with vibes today, and the word 'horrible', from shortly after Gwen/Wendy is changed, then locked in a small room with her fiance as her first meal.

A late submission for today. I went with a synonym: Separation, from when Gwen talks about how J.M. Barrie 'came up' with the story of Peter & Wendy.
Also, this is my girl, Bug. 😻

Oddly, many of Pan's games seem to involve upset feelings and skewered body parts.

Wendy and John Darling, as their adult lives take drastically different paths, but no less tragic.

That feel when you get the munchies for the first time...

A figure with wild, spiky hair sits or crouches on the ground amongst bushes completely in silhouette. The only thing visible is their eyes, which glow an inhuman yellow. Written on top of the image in scratchy, blocky letters is -PAN-
I was noodling last night on procreate and make this, which I kinda like. ^_^ It sort of gets across how creepy Peter Pan is in my story.

The first description of The Roost, Pan's home, as Wendy steps towards an unknown future...odd that her own brother is the only one not eager to see her.

Happy New Year's Eve, writer friends! I hope today is wonderful for you!
I did not sleep enough last night, but here's another snip! 😆 This takes place right before Wendy's fateful last last trip to Neverland as a human.

Spoiler: It's not because she's too British to drink coffee...
Lucy's such a sweetheart...I hope nothing bad happens to her... *spooky fingers*

This is probably longer than what constitutes a snip, it's practically an entire page, but I'm really proud of it, of setting up my MC's feelings about her life and her expectations for it when she first met Pan.

Wendy with Peter. Content warning: this snip has blood.

No witty commentary, sometimes situations just suck...
