I'll ascend into your heaven while I'm treading in your sea

My poem "Reliquiae" is now online at The Pedestal Magazine. It is for nineweaving, who showed me a picture of Seahenge.

(Now I want to know if Elizabeth P. Glixman is related to my mother's side of the family . . .)

I am not yet home; there will be updates soon. For now, I shall state only that strange_selkie and darthrami and their three cats are made of awesome, and so were those cinnamon buns. Also, Jason Isaacs.

Mr. Darling had been practicing small talk all afternoon.

Took me a moment to cross-reference Mr Darling and Jason Isaacs, but he was brilliant in that film, wasn't he?

He's on my list of character actors to watch for. And very close to my definitive image of the characters, now.

Did you ever read Jane Yolen's short story "Lost Girls"?

I did, although it's not my favorite take on Peter Pan. I have much better memories of a short story reprinted in one of the early Year's Best Fantasy and Horror anthologies, narrated by a middle-aged Slightly—if the books weren't all still in a box downstairs, I would look up its title. Mrgh.

I'll go look for that one, then. The local library has a fair number of the earlier _YBSF_ and _YBFH_ anthologies, IIRC.
