Power and Muscle
There are some days when I wish I had the ability to coordinate power and muscle as so many of my characters do, turning a ten hour task into one completed in a few hours, still sweaty and hard, but possible. It would be amazing to build a structure, or strip logs in a portion…
Jelly Beans
As we see the Easter candy fill the shelves at the store, the one I am most drawn to is an old fashioned flavor. I love black licorice, that smooth ripe flavor of anise. The best of course is Brachs, but I can make do with any black jelly bean. I buy them by the…
Human Response
When faced with another species, intelligent and different from us, as humans would we be welcoming and friendly? I think it would depend entirely on the confidence of the humans. Some would immediately see the threat, others the benefits. Some would be welcoming, others cautious and I think the confident would assess strength and weaknesses…
Age
In the world of NewEarth among the dragons, Grabon is a very young newly mature dragon. He is learning what it means to serve the planet as a territory dragon and host his own clan. His confidence comes from the arrogance of youth and a study of what he thinks he should be. How different…
Information Gathering
In the process of trying to find out what is going on in our country, as a concerned citizen and conscientious voter, I actively seek out various points of view on the news. Some I agree with, some I do not and others I simply find interesting. Where three sources from three differing points of…
The Drop
If you were a territory dragon and people who were annoying came into your territory, would you drop them in a pit if you told them to leave and they didn’t? How many people in your world would make the list of those you might drop in a pit? In Grabon’s territory he only drops…
Imagination
Obviously I have some imaginative ear worm that I picked up and nurtured as a small child. It was more than an imaginary friend and less than a full retreat from reality, but it was a safe haven, a place I could play, learn, and enjoy. As an adult, snippets of imagination have always slipped…
Shift and Sort
Like most people, because of circumstances beyond my control, I end up with a pile of stuff in a place where a pile is inconvenient. Then the shift and sort begins and the exploration and discovery. Have you ever noticed that fairies and trolls add things to existing piles when you aren’t looking? Sometimes they…
Flying with a Dragon
As a human flying with a dragon you lend your power and coordination. Of course you are also supposed to shield in such a way so you do not fall off. This is particularly important since dragons do not always fly with their head toward the sky and their feet aimed at the ground. The…
Snow Fog
If you happen to be driving through this pea soup, please use full headlights. It is easy to forget that the running lights that light our way, leaves our back ends invisible to those behind us. Share this and save a life. Thanks!
Snow Fog
You awake to an eerie silence, rush to the window and see…, nothing. The snow has white washed the world with a thick coating of white. It isn’t too cold, it isn’t too warm, but visibility is about three feet. What a strange phenomena and an interesting way for monsters to hide. What exactly lurks…
Stiff and Sore
Some days the people I love wake up feeling like a truck had run them over in the night. If they were dragons they could drink a brew and of course the beast that ran them over would be a charging cattle. The brew would either work to make their muscles fluid and relaxed or…
