Finally… Peter Pan Overview complete
06 Apr 2011 Leave a comment
At last I’ve just put the rest of my Peter Pan ephemera up, in two parts (under Overviews). Sorry it took so long – damn all those footnotes! My essay skills are a little rusty, and the wordpress formatting is a little buggy, or it has been for me at least. Plus I had to orchestrate an Epic Birthday Party last weekend… But enough excuses. It’s done now and that means I can get back to all my book and movie reviews. Cheers.
