Hello, and welcome to my Home page. I've created this site to share a little about myself with friends, both old and new. I must confess at the outset that this certainly qualifies as a "vanity page", and is full of graphics and text about me! Yes, Peter Pan is a character known for vanity, but that is not my main intent! Rather, it is intended to Reach out to other like minded souls, potential new friends, and others who believe in magic and diversity, while having some fun.

I also started this site so that Tinkerbell would have an easier time finding me! , and I'm very happy to report that she has! So first of all I should say that I live in Tampa Bay, Florida. I'm 53 (though I like to ignore the second digit) and am making considerable effort and hopefully having some success at staying young... maybe even childlike. But "why Peter Pan" you ask? Although Peter pan is definitely a boy, to me this character is perfectly androgynous, and in his eternal childhood rejects the idea of growing up and leaving this behind.


Of course life is not a game, and I do strive to continually grow in emotional, spiritual, and mental maturity. But there is and always was this lighter side to me. Childlike, "pixyish", and unencumbered by notions of what is and is not permissible for boys. Am I too old for such notions? Certainly not! Sure there have been times when it was a difficult and lonely road to be so openly unique, and I confess I am often mystified why something so harmless bothers some people so. But the human spirit is hard to suppress, and I have made my choice to be true to myself and live my dreams in this life. So in the end, the many friends I do make are for real, and each is worth more than 100 phonies. For what it's worth, looking in retrospect, the road less traveled certainly has been (and continues to be) the better choice!

Unfortunately this society has deified the gender boundaries they've established, especially the rules of what boys should and should not enjoy doing. This is why little girls are praised for interest in "boyish" activities, but boys who do the opposite are seldom tolerated. So such a character, by his fairy-like qualities and elfin appearance, represents a literal blaspheme against their "god". No wonder few stage productions have dared to cast a male for this character, despite the many talented actors, songwriters, and directors available! (Only a few like Disney and more recently PJ Hogan have had the guts to do so.) Yet it is for these very reasons that this character suits me perfectly. Besides, the God of Love that Jesus spoke of is the only one I serve. Too bad modern religion seems to have missed that.

I've many hobbies and interests including Music (guitarist), electronics, sewing, Computer programming, and I generally like anything creative. In fact, I've just released my first music CD! I also like science fiction/fantasy as well as comedy, fantasy, action-adventure films, and even well done "tear jerker" movies. I'm not super active, but I do like long walks in the woods or on the beach, and bicycling. I also absolutely LOVE to dance, though I must confess my dancing is indeed very silly! I tried to take ballet for a while, and though that is a discipline where any age beyond 30 hurts, it still is a lot of fun. And, as you might have guessed, I DO love the outfits. In fact I do quite a bit of sewing and enjoy making and modifying clothes and costumes. These range from things that I can wear all the time, to fun things more suited for parties, special occasions, or "club-wear", and many would be very suitable for a ballet performance!

I know all this makes me a very silly boy! But If it sounds like a fun thing or even if you'd just like a good laugh (I laugh at myself all the time!) you can check out Peter Pan's Fashion Page! for more of my concoctions . And the fun doesn't end there! Just look at all the links below to tons of other adventures I've had. There's even a page now for my special grrl-friend Dorothy/Tink.. Oh... and Donations are always welcome too. This web site supports local and international kids charities, and YES... you can even get a T-shirt!

I hope you enjoy my site, and certainly if you have similar interests, or fancy yourself in whole or in part as a pixie, elf, fairy, or similar creature, I hope to hear from you. This site has now been up since 2001, and in that time has somehow gained worldwide popularity. But beyond entertainment, it has inspired many to take a more active role in the simple joy of being themselves. I suppose many of my words would be unnecessary if people could lighten up and not fear or disdain such harmless self expression. But just the same, I've been humbled to touch so many lives, and the site will likely continue to grow for a long time.

I'm also a very spiritually active person, and have created another site called Through the Cracks Ministries. It's purpose is to demonstrate how loving God really is, and help people who wish to truly verify His existence for themselves. I guarantee that if you seek the God of love, but can't stand religion, you will be blessed by this site. I've also started another area on this site just for my music, where you can hear samples from my CD, and purchase a copy too. I also have a site related to technology called Elfin Technologies, which is still a work in progress.

Oh and of course... If you happen to have seen Tinkerbell, Wendy, Tigerlilly, or any of my pals, please tell them of my site! If you send a photo of yourself in pixie-wear, I have a Pixie Friends' page too. . You can also click the image to the right for a more serious look into the heart of 'Peter', but don't respond to it because that page was really for when Peter was still 'looking'. . But whoever you are, remember... keep the child in you alive and protected. It's more important than you can possibly know!!!
