Market
In book 3 The Heartsinger, Hess, Tad, Pit and Thane come up with the idea of a joint species market, a place not only to exchange goods, but ideas and culture between humans and dragons. Grabon approves and they decide where to locate the open air market by the end of the book. Unless I…
Read MoreWaiting
Like everyone, I suppose, I detest waiting. I plan my life to have as little blank wait time as possible. In the event that I am stuck waiting for someone or something I bring a book, or plot a story, or watch people, or have a discussion, some kind of planned activity. I seldom find…
Read MoreReading
Like all good writers, I spend a portion of my day consuming words as well as producing them. Some days it is Feehan, some days it is Leigh. If my mood is right it is Bishop or Garwood. Roberts is always a possibility, Howard touches my heart every time. I read multi genre, various time…
Read MoreHealing
With The Heartsinger officially out for a week, I am beginning work on Healing, which is slowly coming in from my editor, Jo. She has been working away at it since she finished book 3. This is the story of LeeAnn, the healer who comes to live in the territory. She is a strong female…
Read MorePit Info from The Heartsinger NewEarth 3
Pit is a bit odd, even for a dragon. Does he really warn Tad away from establishing a mating bond if it is not what he wants? It sounds like he’s has a complicated relationship of his own that he is trying to forget. The conflict between him and Thane seems to be born of…
Read MoreTad and Hess
What kinds of challenges do you think Tad and Hess face moving from the colonies, where they were dealing with corrupt humans on NewEarth and corrupt smugglers from off planet in trade, to dealing with Heron, Grabon and the new territory? Mixing humans and dragon culture sounds complex… or at least it does to some…
Read MoreVisit the Forest
Yesterday we spent a good part of the day in the trees, walking and admiring the signs of spring. We saw turtles mating, sunning themselves on logs and a beaver dam. There was an unidentified mammal swimming, a beaver or otter, moving fast and diving. There were fish, lots of them and bugs, but not…
Read MoreCompanion Bond
The bond between Grabon and Heron does not allow them to think with one mind, does not avoid arguments or even stop them from deceiving one another or themselves, but it does allow them to combine strengths in a way that without the bond, they could not coordinate. Heron and Grabon both have strong well…
Read MoreHeron’s Talent
Heron has a wide open mind, meaning of course that his brain will psychically connect with anything that is capable of psychically connecting. He uses all types of mind connections to communicate, much like the dragons do; emotional, mind speak, energy and then his connections that he makes to the forest, the trees and other…
Read MoreOutside
I am anxious to spend part of the day outside, getting parts of the yard ready for plowing, another part prepped for flowers. The only challenge is dressing warm enough not to freeze, but not so warm that I melt beneath the clothing. It is a fleece kind of day to be sure. Planning the…
