Discussions on NewEarth

Heron
Heron had eighteen cycles living with his family before the fires. Then he met Grabon. Do you think Heron would have been willing to form a friendship with Grabon if his family had been alive? When they died in the fire, he was still trying to earn their approval despite his strong connection to the…
Read MoreLars and Hipita
For those of you who are anxiously awaiting the sixth NewEarth novel, I can tell you that the main character is Lars and he finds acceptance with many; but most especially with his mate, Hipita.
Read MoreHeron and Trissy
In book 2 Heron is relieved that he had told Trissy about the fires that had destroyed his earlier life. They did a lot of talking in his dreams so he wouldn’t have to relive the memories. I was thinking about including those discussion in posts as well as some of their other conversations. Is…
Read MoreWould You Go?
When the human settlers first arrived on NewEarth, determined to protect the environment but addicted to technology, how much disposable tech do you think they brought? I bet they had solar chargers for devices they thought they needed, weapons and even some communication devices. Only later, after they were faced with what to do with…
Read MoreTraveling
As we move along, admiring the spectacular western scenery, I squint and imagine what it must have been like five to seven hundred years ago. Then I change some of the trees to red, put a dragon or two in the sky, others perched on Messas and shine a green light on everything. My focus…
Read MorePlanet’s Abilities
If you have been reading the NewEarth Series, you have some ideas already of what types of abilities the planet offers to humans and dragons alike. Is there a particular one that appeals to you? If you could choose only one, what ability would it be? Which character has it? and… and this is difficult,…
Read MoreGrabon
As a youth, awandering from territory to territory before he met Heron and even after, do you think Grabon was a polite guest, following most of the rules of courtesy? Did he get invited into the territory nest often? I can see him aggressively demanding information, debating the territory dragon’s rules and challenging his reasons.…
Read MoreDragons as Mammals
What made me think that dragons could be mammals? I was reading something about dinosaurs possibly being mammalian. That sparked one idea and my thoughts dove down a rabbit hole. It works that way with me. Little by little Grabon came to life in my mind and from there the story was formed. Grabon is…
Read MoreGordon
As the story grows and we move from book to book, can you see how Gordon relaxes, becomes more sociable? He is reveling in his own acceptance, in being one of the males and no longer the strongest, biggest and most powerful. He lost no respect from his new friends but he gained equals and…
Read MoreDragons And Humans
Are the humans educated in NewEarth? Are the dragons? Is knowledge revered or scorned? In human history, informtion and knowing more facts or a different application does not always go well for the individual. Even today, people decide they like common knowledge of medicine (folk medicine or alternative medicine) rather than modern medicine because they…
Read MoreHope
All through my stories of NewEarth, there is a hopeful and positive push for things to be better. Mistakes can be corrected, bad people can be eliminated even if it means losing patience and blasting them with enough energy to set them aflame and turning their miserable carcasses to ash. Once that gruesome chore is…
Read MorePets
If the territory dragons of all the territories Grabon visited as a youth believed Heron to be a pet, and that protected him, what are the rules governing pets? So far we have not seen any pets among the dragons. Obviously it is an established idea, keeping some beasts as pets. Watch for this idea…
