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.

The curse has included a tornado and I am definitely against the pestilence part of the prophecy, but we did have an invasion of ants once and a horde of lady bug like beetles that covered our ceilings. Yep we are guest cursed, and yet we…
Read MoreMy stories are based on establishing long lasting relationships, an in real life I have plenty of examples to draw on. Both my grandparents had milestones marriages lasting fifty years or more and my parents just celebrated their 57th year together. Dragons live longer than humans, so their relationships that last a lifetime can span 200 years. Not that it makes much difference, the principals are the same. Establishing a…
