You should read Peter Pan. (The book by J.M. Barrie. Or Barry.)

I was thinking about what you said about loving fairy tales and stories, and I think you ought to read it. It's pretty short, and it is my favorite book of all time. It outdoes Lord of the Rings. It's pretty close between Narnia and Peter Pan, but I think Peter Pan wins, that's how much I love that book.

Read it. Now.

Actually I did read it a couple of months ago. I read it to Arden every night one chapter at a time and ended up LOVING it.
I didn't expect to love it, but you're right, I LOVE fairy tales and it's really really great.

I enjoyed it very much.

Yeah. I bought a copy of it (with beautiful illustrations) and I read once every couple of months. I just love it more every time.

Peter is my hero.

It's truly beautiful.

I don't love Fairy Tales because they have happy endings, because they don't always.

They are just simple and beautiful and wonderful and I adore them.

Peter Pan didn't exactly have a HAPPY ending, but it had the RIGHT ending. Which is the most important kind of ending.

I aspire to write the perfect fairy tale.

So, I'm going back and forth about how much fantasy to put in my book. (The pirate one). Should I go all out and use mermaids and giants and whatnot? Or keep it subtle and just occasionally reference fantasy-like elements?
