Discussion on NewEarth

It would be easy to mistake Hanna’s character as weak and submissive in the beginning, but as the series grows and she recovers, she blossoms. Hanna is of course highly skilled. She can craft gold into any shape with such detail and with so much sensitivity that it can bring a tear to anyone’s eye.…

A frequently asked question is: does Brom ever get his own story? I think that’s a sneaky way of asking if he ever finds his mate, but the answer is yes! Look for Brom’s story… called The Hunter coming soon.

In most books that include dragons, they don’t focus on the dragon’s needs, but then they aren’t true characters. In Grabon’s Nest, he and Pia are the main characters, it is their romance. The same is true in the upcoming book Acceptance, the main characters are Lars, Porter, and Hipita. My dragons have all kinds…

The first book of the NewEarth Series is all about the characters. It is about Hanna, the goldcrafter with poor self confidence and a skill that leaves everyone else speechless.

Well she makes another appearance in Acceptance and adds significantly to the story. Glinarca is a dominant female, a fighter and she has an unusual connection…

As Lars learns in Book 6 of the NewEarth Series, 100 cycles is not too old to completely upend a dragons life. In order to earn acceptance into the clan, he must first prove himself and complete his task. What are Grabon and Heron going to ask him to do?

My first title for book6 was The Soother. Hipita who is an amazing character, and somewhat central to the story, happens to have a very interesting talent that goes well with her somewhat prickly personality.     Only I did that with Healing, naming the book after a talent and I did not want readers…

Heron warns Grabon about the dangers of human arrogance, cautioning him that humans are no better than dragons when it comes to thinking they know everything, judge everything, especially what they do not fully understand. We see it all the time, one human presuming to know what is best for someone else and trying to…
