Grabon’s Territory
How is it that humans know so little about the dragons? Well, the dragons were not inclined to make contact with lesser beasts that came from off planet unless they posed a danger to the planet itself. The dragons observed the humans from a distance. Yes that meant that the humans had a glimpse of…
Guests and visitors
Most of us have a language distinction that we use to indicate company that joins us in our lives and those who expect us to cater to their needs. Whether our friends hang out while others visit or we have guests and visitors, it all amounts to the same thing. Some people are close enough…
Jenny
Why is her speech undeveloped when Heron finds her and Trissy? She is four cycles, between seven and eight earth years, yet her speech is poorly pronounced. First, different children develop at different ages, but also while they have been traveling there were few opportunities to practice her speech. Some tasks she is independent with,…
Heron’s Bonds
One of my favorite parts of the story is not a big dramatic event, but rather Grabon’s attitude toward Trissy and Jenny. Being companions with Heron is obviously important, so establishing some form of bond with his mate and child must have been incredibly important. He manages well, but it could not have been easy.
Wildly Exciting
I spoke with Athena today, my artist, and she is going to draw the latest dragons to join Grabon. Keep a watch on the website so you can see as new art is added. Just as exciting, I got my own copy of Heron’s Bonds in the mail. I took a picture and sent it…
Tad and Hess
If you remember the brothers, Gordon’s cousins from Gordon’s Pride, they come with a cattle wagon to take Karn and Mazy back to the first colony. They are born Farmers, but that is not their only skills. They buy and trade things with the smugglers and produce things, like paper books. They are both adults,…
Newsletter 1
The first newsletter went out today and I am hoping people enjoyed it. So far the response has been positive, but then I started composing the next one. With two books listed on Amazon, I am wondering what types of insight I should include. I personally hate spoilers, so I am not willing to go…
Looking for Art
More of Athena’s fantastic depictions of NewEarth can be found in the glossary. From bentars to fangers, she has illustrated the critters of my world most impressively. Take a few moments to look around the glossary and see if her image matches yours.

Light and Optimism
The world of NewEarth has challenges, dangers, those who are twisted. It is not lacking in trauma or even corruption, but their is a determined type of optimism that shines from the characters. We could all use some of that.
Language barrier
Humans on NewEarth speak Universal, or a version of it that has emerged after 200 years isolated on a planet with little communication with outsiders. I imagine it is as different from Universal as say American is from English. However my point was that the dragons face another language barrier. Not only are they all…
Dragon Posture
As you read Heron’s Bonds you will probably notice that the posture of Brom and Griss are well described when they make their vows to Grabon after he promises them something they clearly find valuable. I am being cagey to keep from revealing details a reader might not have discovered yet. In any case, their…
