Karyne (00:00:07) – Hi fantasy readers. This is Karyne Norton, your fellow book binger, and you are listening to the Finding Fantasy Reads podcast where you can test out a new fantasy story every single week to find your next favorite author.
Today’s short story is a fun new take on Peter Pan. It comes from the Never Tales anthology, which I’ve featured before, but there are still tons more great stories in it, and a lot of them have additional related stories in the second volume as well. This particular one is written by Emily Barnett whose writing is inspired by our weird and wonderful world and the Creator who sustains it all. Emily homeschools her two boys, illustrates on occasion, gardens barefoot, and continually worries her husband by using the phrase, “you know what we should do to the house next?” Stick around to the end or check out today’s show notes to see where you can find more from Emily!
For now, please enjoy The Tinker by Emily Barnett.

Karyne Norton hasn’t found the key to time travel, immortality, or infinite lives, so she’s taking a break from nursing and photography to focus on raising four human beings while writing epic fantasy.
