Adva Shaviv has brought ADventures Heading up and Down to Kickstarter, with the author’s site dating the campaign’s debut to October 13. The cozy portal fantasy follows siblings Tom, Alice and George and their mother Emma, drawing its magical world and its characters’ experiences from ADHD. The children’s encounter

with a purple creature called Banjo leads into an adventure of shifting thoughts, strange obstacles and family relationships. Shaviv describes the novel as written for adults while also being suitable for younger readers, rather than presenting its young protagonists as the sole audience. The crowdfunding campaign is

the book’s initial release route. Shaviv says the manuscript is complete and plans wider availability after fulfilling backer copies. Image: Adva Shaviv; official book-format promotional artwork supplied on the author’s site.
