Oppositional

Have you ever met someone who will argue over the color of your new shirt? How about someone who will debate how many minutes late you were? Oppositional people will argue anything, for any reason. The only way to stop them is to agree, a method called “dropping the rope.” It is hard to have…

Unexpected

There are a lot of unexpected things that happen in a life. In the lives of my characters things seldom turn out as they originally planned. Male or female, human or dragon, they are forced to think quickly and launch into alternative plans. As the creator of the characters, I can say that my life…

Religion

In my books religion is an interesting thing. I have a family of Farmers, Craftsmen, Artisans, Miners, Woodsmen, and even Clergy that arrive on the new planet and settle there. But the Clergy were not keepers of a single faith, because not all people practice the same faith, not on earth today and certainly not…

Territory Dragons

If you ask Grabon, being a territory dragon is simply a matter of having branches on your power line. That is definitely an over simplification since many clan members of the Combined Territories has branching power lines, yet none of them choose to take on the role of territory dragon. Grabon and Heron made a…

Disappointment

People set expectations of themselves and of others and when something happens and we fail to meet those expectations there is disappointment.

Pet Peeve?

First off I want to express my wonder that some people make a pet out of their peeves. I may have a few that reoccure, but as far as I know I have never fed nor housed them, nurtured or cared for them. That being said, like any other human there are boundaries and expected…

Cleaning

Someone asked me why I have characters wasting valuable story time doing mundane tasks like cleaning, and I laughed and said I waste considerable living time doing those tasks; and lots of valuable things happen during that time. Some of my best discussions with family and friends have happened while washing dishes. You wash, I’ll…

Dragon’s Clan

The members of a territory clan, people bonded with the territory dragon, are the dragon’s clan members. Being a clan dragon is an honor and a privilege, but it also comes with a an obligation to agree and support the territory dragon. If a clan dragon finds that they cannot support their territory leader they…

Grabon as King

Anyone who has read my books realizes that a territory dragon is more like a king than anything else. Yet a territory dragon is held to a set of rules by the continental council. The council is answerable to the planet. In that way, there is accountability, but the system of government is definitely not…

Beasts and Birds

In the green sky world of NewEarth there are some fun beasts and birds that Athena my artist did a fantastic job of depicting. There is the puton, a large cat like creature, that is a top of the food-chain hunter. The fanger is like a wild boar, only bigger, and it eats everything and…
