Deception
Not all deception is bad. Grabon and Heron deceived all the humans and dragons they knew, letting the dragons believe Heron was a human pet and letting the humans believe that Grabon was a dragon pet. It wasn’t until they were both safe with Grabon claiming his territory that the truth began to come out.…
Read MorePowers
“All the humans have powers, psychic or magical powers.” Those powers are really a byproduct of their connection with the planet. They are a gift, given freely by a powerful, meddling planet attempting to adopt a second species and bring them all into her circle of influence. The dragons have a unique understanding of the…
Read MoreCooking
You might have noticed that Hanna is a great cook. From her meat pies to her morning bread; her stews and jams are favorites and her cookies are legendary. One critic pointed out that much of her time is spent in the kitchen cooking and planning meals. He thought this was old fashioned and sexist.…
Read MoreNewEarth Storms
Hannah experiences the storms of NewEarth in Gordon’s Pride, when the wind and rain rip across the land, knocking down dwellings and flattening things in her path. When Hannah was alone those storms were terrifying because she had no shelter beyond the walls and roof. When she was claimed by Gordon, she was surrounded by…
Read MoreLeeAnn the Healer
In book 4, LeeAnn, this amazing young woman who has survived some terrible circumstances, is dropped into Grabon’s nest. This is definitely not the best introduction of a human to a territory dragon, but I will say it was memorable for everyone there. LeeAnn heals not only her own injuries but Grabon’s and her value…
Read MoreComing Back
Like so many things that were delayed and distracted by world events and illness, my blog was derailed and put on hold, but my utopian books are still available on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/NewEarth-6-Book-Series/dp/B07JW6FHJR/ref=sr_1_5?dchild=1&keywords=Julia+schmeelk+books&qid=1628940600&sr=8-5 If you are looking for something hopeful, uplifting and fun give one of my stories a whirl. You can always find the links…
Read MoreHanna
When Hanna first sees Gordon, she notices his height, the size of his arms, the stubborn set of his jaw. Like most abuse victims, she notices his anger, his frown, and she tries to appease him using a variety of tricks. Later, when Hanna feels the connection to the planet come back to her, she…
Read More2020 Plague: A Beginning
When the humans of old Earth faced their first plague in 2020, the global population began to split themselves into 4 distinct categories. It was hard to imagine where those categories would eventually go, but little by little as things devolved on the planet the separations became clearer and more distinct. In the beginning their…
Read MoreHens
Starting with Gordon’s farm, the hens play an important part in each couple’s household. Not only are they a convenient source of fresh eggs, but they require a sense of commitment and tending. Transients do not have hens, but neither do dragons. As my stories progress, who is the first dragon In the Combined Territories…
Read MoreIllness
While illness is a fact of life, for all species, I incorporated it into the human and dragon experience of NewEarth. Mox who features heavily in The Hunter, has a very special connection with the planet. She can sense viruses and bacteria, lure them out of a person, human or dragon and into herself. Once…
Read MorePia the Drummer
Pia has many amazing features, her ability to drum is probably the most mysterious. She is not a Heartsinger, releasing the pain trapped in people’s minds with songs that push out the negative by enhancing the positive emotions. No, she vibrates with the rhythms of the planet, and the planet will vibrate with the force…
Read MoreMeasure a Good Day
Most of my adult life I was a teacher. A good day was when kids learned. I also favored the ones when I did not have to call cops, social workers, psychiatrists, or Doctors to help keep my students alive. That being said, I am no longer teaching, but instead I am working in sales.…
