Cyber Stunts

By Julia Schmeelk | January 7, 2019

There were warning signs about a month ago. We started looking for a glitch or an attack. Not much I can do, but Bryon my cyber expert knew what he was seRching for. He managed to start cleaning things up, and weeding things out. Comments are active again. If you left a comment in the…

2 Suns, 2 Moons

By Julia Schmeelk | January 7, 2019

One of the joys of worldbuilding is coming up with the physical world for a story. In the case of the NewEarth Series I decided on a sentient planet, female, with two suns that she orbits around with two moons that rotate around her. In making that choice I had to figure rotation, times, size…

Dragon or Human Insults

By Julia Schmeelk | January 6, 2019

One of the more interesting insults used in the NewEarth Series is the use of species characterizations. For instance a gossipy person is a gibber. A human with great integrity is dragon like and a dragon with little control is a beast, not even specified. Gordon has times when he is as stubborn as one…

Phone Manners

By Julia Schmeelk | January 6, 2019

Has anyone else noticed that phone manners have changed? When I was a child we answered the phone with a family greeting. We were taught to say goodbye before we hung up, my mother insisted that we not announce that someone was in the bathroom and it was considered necessary to cover the speaker when…

Visiting!

By Julia Schmeelk | January 5, 2019

In my books I have humans and dragons who practice the art of visiting. It is a skill, something humans have done for thousands of years, but recently it has gone out of fashion. I am not sure if technology has disrupted the practice or if people are finding other ways to communicate and socialize…

Holiday, Sickness, and Books

By Julia Schmeelk | January 5, 2019

First I want to say happy NewYear!  My head is still spinning from the holidays. I guess I got sick right after Christmas and have been fighting this cold that morphed into bronchitis until I went to the doctor for some of the good stuff (antibiotics) that beefed up my immune army of soldiers and…

The Market - 1024

Combined Territories

By Julia Schmeelk | January 3, 2019

Grabon and Heron’s territories are called that after book 6 when Heron claims the second territory along with a Grabon. The name suits the stories because it is a combined species settlement. It combines languages, cultures, and customs. The market is a cultural exchange where a dragon or human can buy goods- dragon or human…

Job Hunt

By Julia Schmeelk | January 3, 2019

As some of you may know, I am currently looking for a day job to pay for my expensive writing habit. I laugh, but I need to sell a lot more books before it pays for art and advertising. That being said, I am not giving up but willing to work to buy more time.…

Cold Recovery

By Julia Schmeelk | January 2, 2019

I know people who refuse to medicate a cold or the flu. I am not sure how they manage, but I firmly believe in treating symptoms. I despise being forced to surrender to some foul bacteria or virus and relinquish my daily plan. That being said, I am guilty of spreading disease. When it is…

New Shirt

By Julia Schmeelk | January 2, 2019

Like a ton of other people, I got a new shirt for Christmas. I wore it for the first time yesterday and discovered an odd little problem. I am guessing that most of you have encountered a problem like this with a piece of clothing, it rides up. It is an underlayer shirt, meant to…

Fighting a Cold

By Julia Schmeelk | December 30, 2018

Some of you may know that I quit smoking, almost a year ago. I had made a couple of efforts after my heart episode, but the flu last year did the trick. By the time I was well enough to step outside, I hadn’t had a cigarette in 14 days. So while Shawn has cut…
