Dragons

“Do your dragons have six limbs?” Someone recently asked. And yes they do, two arms, two legs and of course their wings. Some of the other creatures on NewEarth also have six limbs, the pinarts for example, and the lopers. Other animals have four, like the gibber, hens, or the hopper. My dragons are mammals,…

Porter and Zack

Porter feels somewhat paternal towards Zack. He has provided a lot of guidance as Zack matured, not only protecting and practicing with him, but teaching him along with Grabon and Heron and the rest of the clan. Porter was in many ways, Zack’s person. If you have ever been in that position you know it…

Drive through

We drove to a neighboring town with more traffic, went through a drive through, and I parked, filled up with gas, and put on a few miles. The more I drive the easier it gets. In towns, out of towns, two lanes, four lanes, in and out of traffic. It is coming back. At the…

Hipita and Lars

SPOILER🤦‍♀️ Bryon, my promotion and tech wizard guy of extraordinary powers, suggested I put some kind of warning for spoilers. So consider yourself warned if you have not read book 6 and intend to, this post may contain information you would rather learn in the story. That being said, Heron claims the second territory and…

Packing and Moving

The whole process of moving is not one of my favorites. I would love to  jump in and do it until I collapsed, get it finished, load it all on a truck and be done with this half. The problem of course is timing. Packing up too soon leaves us without essential equipment. Packing too…

An image of Gordon and Hannah on the farm

His power and size should scare Hanna to death after all she has been through, but truthfully, nothing seems to scare her much besides a storm…

Natural Disasters

A Snowball Fight in NewEarth

You may have noticed that NewEarth does not escape natural disasters. In book 1 there is a sudden storm that moves from warm autumn temperatures to sudden winter cold. In another book there is a swarm of bugs that eats everything in their path. And the driving snow storms play a key role in several…

Bad Weather

Natural disasters bring out the best and the worst in people. I sincerely hope that everyone effected by this hurricane is safe and well sheltered. Rebuilding takes time, but may it be done with a minimum of drama and expense and may all the ducks line up at the same time. Our weather systems and…

Driving

After more than 20 years, getting behind the wheel and driving in traffic was a bit tense. I say that now after several doses of Tylenol and a good nights sleep, but hopefully it will be easier today, and easier still tomorrow. The permit test was interesting. They had iPads set up to give the…
