The winds of change are strong. Do not fight them -  ride them as far and high as they will take you.

Wisdom of the Flight Leaders - April 29

Wisdom of the Flight Leaders

as shared by Alador Guldalian

A wise dragon listens to the advice of the elders who have experience. A wise and courageous dragon knows when to act against that advice.

A dragon may find comfort in his bed of treasure, but a bed in isolation is a cold companion.

The wisdom of an elder should not be forsaken. Why suffer learning a lesson's pain when you can listen? Fool is the dragon that thinks such cannot happen to him, to this dragon the swiftest lessons come.

Every Dragon is right in his own eyes therefore one must measure the matter against the heart for the heart can see that which avarice cannot.

Here Be Dragons!

I recently received an article from an agency that verified that dragons ARE real.  With permission, the full article has been reprinted on the Society for Enlightened Dragonologists blog.

The article includes evidence that the early medieval period was a perfect environmental setting for dragons.  From the fact that wealth and status were measured in gold and silver (a preference of Dragons) to the period's unusually warm temperatures - the major needs of dragons were present, allowing them to flourish during that period.  You can read more at:  http://www.dragonologists.com/here-be-dragons/

Join the society and learn how to interact, encourage and protect the dragons when they once more fill our skies!!

A New Life!

One month chemo free.... I thought now that my life would be back to normal.  But then... what is normal?  Psychologists call normal the absence of pathology and others would say it is a return to normalcy.  I have discovered there is no such thing.  I am going to have to forge a new normal.

While I am no George R.R Martin, my books are doing well enough that I can write full time. Writing before all this was always at lunch breaks, late nights and stolen moments of time at a computer.  Now, writing is my life and passion.  I do not have to go into an office or work on anyone else's schedule.   Every one's dream... right?  To do what you love as both your passion and your work?

I have discovered it is not that easy.   Before, I would be inspired and rush to my computer at the first chance.  I would frantically email an idea home when it came to me.  Now, I have an office.  I have a desk.  I go to work at my office and sit at my desk and think of one hundred things to do other than write?
New Desk!


What is that about?

I did some research and some deep thinking.  Many of us have dreams, they are not really goals as we have no action plan for them.  Somehow, in this sudden flow of creativity and a push from friends, my dream came true.   What do you do when you have achieved your dream?  I spent a week at the ocean with my editor and illustrator.  We all had dinner with my second editor.  The purpose was to figure out how to go forward.

Me, Becky and Katherine

I decided what I need is a new dream.  Not material goals... I have what I need in life.  Everything else would just be window dressing and icing.  So my new dream, is to one day write something that is so powerful that it becomes a movie.  Something where a producer can visualize the power of the images I portray and the characterizations that are more than wooden puppets on a stage.  For those of you following me, that is my new dream, to see my work come to life.

For those of you waiting for Psuedo-dragon, I am going to have to push it back a bit.  Healing from chemotherapy has created a severe neuropathy that makes long hours of typing painful.  It has slowed down my progress.  I still plan to come in close. I am now shooting to be out in mid-June.

I would rather delay it again then to get comments about the missing comma on page one.  I still have not found that missing comma.  *sighs*  I think I may have been trolled.  Does that mean I am officially famous if I have a troll?


Well, I could stay here talking to you all... and not writing.  However, Pseudo-Dragon just got interesting so I had better go.  I can hear the characters calling me back to the table.

Have a great week!

Author Update!

Let's see where I was last at. ...

I have done some live writing of other parts of the world that The Blue Dragon's Geas is set in. Please let me know if you wish me to keep writing up these snapshots.  I will be happy to do so if they have value to all of you.

Health:  Finished Chemo.  Unfortunately, part of healing is getting nerve feeling back in ends of fingers which makes typing slow.  This is slowing down the fourth book.

Fourth Book:  By a popular vote, Pseudo-Dragon won for the title of the next book.  I am currently about 14 chapters into it. It will probably be as large as Blackguard at this rate.  A lot of small loose ends get tied up and woven back in. Henrick's secret is revealed.  And.. well you will have to read for other things.  I know one fun chapter to write was Luthian in a mage battle.    I will have a teaser out at the end of the month for this book.
