Heron does not respond passively when a dragon flies in and drops dead meat on the path to Grabon’s nest. Not only does he take it poorly that the strange dragon is insulting and challenging Grabon, but his mate and Hanna were on that path when the meat fell from the sky. It was only…

Why does Heron go to such lengths to try and conceal his emotions from Trissy? Is it because of survivors guilt over the fires when he was a young man? Is it because of his feelings for Grabon and some of the other dragons? Is it because of the emotions that come into play because…

In book 2 Hanna shows Trissy the trick and it turns out with practice she can do it as well. Maybe she doesn’t get as much water out as quickly, but it still lessens the drying time and amount of work it takes to wash clothing. Trissy’s reaction is of course, I wish I had…

The idea of a slide was taken of course from the idea of an outhouse, you will see a variety of plumbing ideas as the series developes. Eliminating waste and depositing it somewhere gave me an interesting puzzle as I designed nests and built the culture of the dragons.

Grabon’s five friends come in to visit, to check out Grabon’s newly claimed territory knowing that in the past they challenged him to claim a territory and they would settle down and become the foundation of his clan.

You can see why we have the books all numbered as there are so many, but they also have nicknames. 1 is Pride, 2 is Heron and Trissy. As we publish more of the others I’ll give you the other nicknames. As people read Heron’s Bonds, I hate to put something in the blog that…

If you were Gordon and had seen your relatives treating Grabon and the others with anything less than respect would you have spoken up before Grabon and Heron noticed there was a problem? As soon as he realized that Trissy noticed, did you expect him to jump from his stool and throw them all out…

When Trissy realizes that young dragons are expelled from their home territory at fifteen and that her children are likely to want to go awandering with the dragon youngsters, she plants her very human feet and demands Grabon set a territory rule. Heron is hugely amused by this and so is Grabon, but in the…
