Lars and the Past
Without giving anything away, Lars and his brother Taz come from the shadow clan, a clan that was completely destroyed by a twisted dragon who used mind control, killed the territory dragon and his mate, trapped clan members in the territory and set key people, nests and landmarks on fire, scorching the territory using the…

So a special thanks to everyone who has lent their support to all my projects and helped me get this series seen by…

Frowning at Computer
I spent a good portion of the day frowning at my computer, shaking the mouse at the screen, and yelling at the confounded contraption designed to make any sane person crazy. My husband and the dog were napping peacefully in the other room so I tried to limit my tantrums to mostly small noises on…
New Technology
I am a technology dunce and my friends call me Julie. I sort of feel like there should be a meeting for people like me where we confess our tech struggles in the dark, dank basement of some forgotten building. The thing is, I no sooner learn one system and it is replaced by another.…
Home Inspection
Well, life is interesting… there had been no previous reports of radon or lead, no previous reports lulled us into a false sense of security. The previous owners had lived there a long time, since before radon was a known carcinogen and cause for lung cancer. So our plan is to have it mitigated, evicted…
Sweety the Pup

Cooking and Tea
In primitive conditions, without the use of technology, one of the most valuable skills is cooking. In Grabon’s Territory there are a number of people with great kitchen skills. A few of them are even dragons. The stories focus on all types of skills and talents, including those domestic skills. Tea is the preferred drink…

Hopeful House 🏡
We saw the house yesterday. It is really great, lots of room for us, lots of room for our stuff, even a fenced yard for the dog. In town but quiet, less than 10 minutes from my parents, tucked away behind and around municipal buildings and in an established neighborhood. The house is part of…
