NewEarth Series - Grabon

All About Me

Evidently I was born, although I do not remember the party. Stories indicate I had a pink carnation in the nursery that I greatly admired. I was one of the lucky ones. I have a wonderful family, filled with curiosity, acceptance and more than our fair share of laughter. We have

our tragedies and trials, but somehow, we usually manage to band together and face them with as much strength as possible.

My husband and I have been together for… let’s say we met in 1983. He is not only my companion and friend, but also the guardian of my imagination. I imagine I am not easy to live with on a regular basis, especially because I am not always present where my feet are, but I also tend to babble and talk to my characters as I am plotting. Yes, he deserves a medal.

For thirty years, I was the teacher in a classroom. It was an experience I would never give up and I hope I made a difference for those students, but underneath the apple crusted desk, I was always a writer, an observer and a student of human behavior and responses. My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

Welcome to my world of NewEarth. I hope you enjoy the people, the setting and the story. Sign up for my newsletter to find out more about me and the world I created.

On NewEarth the idea of power and energy comes from the planet. The idea of alternative energy would be human produced to power technology. The irony of course is that I am selling solar power systems in real life, now that I am retired from teaching. Can you imagine Grabon’s response to that? In another way, all the dragons would be appalled by the condition of our planet. Instead of…

False Facts

By CTCadmin | September 25, 2019

Combating false facts can be exhausting, frustrating, and often feels futile! It is hard to imagine how much effort is put into convincing all of us that what is not true, must be true. For many years I laughed at the conspiracy theorists, simply dismissing them as entertainment. Before I knew it they had well know accepted facts replaced with lies, truth buried under faith, and people believing false versions…
