The Rules
On NewEarth, there is a set of rules known to all the dragons of the continent. Those rules come first from the planet and then are added to from the council of twelve of the oldest and wisest dragons. How are the council dragons chosen? They are not elected, they are invited to fill a…

Funny 2
I am old. I freely admit I went through college, my under graduate degree, using an electric typewriter, or paying someone to type my papers after I wrote them by hand. I grew up without a dishwasher or microwave. So I lack some of the connectedness that some younger people have. Technology whirls around me…

Bookstores
Like most writers I love books, I read books, lots of books, all kinds of books. To be clear I buy books. Old books, used books, new books, I get books in lots of places. Today I stopped by a half price book store. Yes some of the books are new, some are used, some…

Finding a Mate
The journey that the dragons face in finding a mate, that one compatible mind that can link with yours is almost an impossible task, yet most dragons make the attempt.

Kerg is a mature dragon, an experienced fighter, with a serious problem. He wants, needs, craves, justice for his dead friend Joons and his small youngster Denu.

Like so many people who have lived in masks for the last couple of years, I have avoided many illnesses. For weeks I have been scheduled to meet with a new doctor because my new insurance will not cover my old doctor since I changed networks. So I was anticipating a visit, made arrangements etc.…

Manufacturing
I don’t know if most readers have puzzled out the manufacturing needs of NewEarth and how some goods are made on planet with local resources and others are brought in from off planet, but as the writer, these are difficulties and balances that keep me up at night. Or wake me in the middle of…

Justice is Not New
The concept of blind justice, applying to everyone equitably, is as old as the idea of democracy where people vote to bestow power and advance ideas and philosophy. MLK was a philosopher and a realist who knew that while the world was not perfect, it could be driven to be better. He was a driving…

Winter
With Christmas put away and real winter looking us over with a hungry glare, my car decided to have a few hiccups. Took it in for repairs and over $500 dollars later it is still running rough and hesitating and dying at times. I bought some seafoam additive and put it in the gas tank.…
