January Update

 I don't do resolutions as they don't seem to last out the month. But I do make short-term goals with my writing. I plan to concentrate on Kindle Vella this year more than just on writing books.

Haven't forgotten about these books though. Just been busy with Kindle Vella and Bone Whisperer.  I have 7 stories up right now  on Vella, including Bone Whisperer, my WIP and a dragon romance.  If you want to try Vella here is a link to  A Modern Dragon .  The first three episodes (chapters) are free. The rest take a various amounts of tokens depending on word count. 

 I got soo many books (3 after BW) and now Vellas to write before I can spare time on this series. But this book is still slated for writing.  Though it may be later like 2026. However my muse is fickle and she may slot it in sooner. I may do it on Vella. I have a couple of my T.L. books on Vella. We shall see if I do more on Vella.

This collection of books will get written. I have tentative covers done and I look at them periodically to keep them fresh in my imagination. Cats and dragons are my favs and their stories will be written.

Some AMZ KDP accounts have been terminated because of piracy. A pirate takes our ebook and puts it on other sites and the author gets their account terminated because that breaks the terms and conditions of KU. I'm going to leave my Tina books on/in AMZ/KU but the T.L. books are on Ingram Sparks as well and go wide. When I finish BW it's going on IS as well.  All of my T.L. books are going on Ingram. I will keep you updated on that.

The Dragon Familiar

 Kaya was not the conventional Voice of the Goddess. Oh, she had the elemental gift but she was not patient or motherly. She spoke her mind and didn't suffer fools well at all. Part of that was that she had been raised in a village without a temple and her vocation had not been recognized until a priestess passing through had identified her as a Voice. Her village couldn't wait to get rid of her and sent her along with the priestess. 

She never fully lost her wariness no matter how well she was now treated. Her sharp tongue was blunted, but she still spoke her mind. She had worked hard to overcome the negativity of the villagers and she was not going to lose that hard won step.


Coming out tentatively in 2026 now.  However two of these dragon books are out. If you would like to check them out Dragon Books

Each dragon tale is a standalone. After I get these out I may revisit one or two of the worlds. But that depends on my muse who is so fickle she must be Bast, the cat goddess.

This series is about women who are true to themselves and the dragons that appreciate them the way they are. However they are not PNR or UF. Though I do have one of those in the queue.

August Update

  Haven't forgotten about these books. Just been busy.

I started doing Kindle Vella. It's Amazon's serial story program.  You do episodes (chapters) that people pay tokens to read. The first 3 episodes are free to see if you are interested then you pay various amounts of tokens according to word count of the episode. 200 tokens are $1.99 and equal about 8 episodes.  I have 4 stories up right now including Bone Whisperer, my WIP.  If you want to try Vella here is a link to Bone Whisperer

 I got soo many books (4 now) and now Vellas to write before I can spare time on this series. But this book is still slated for writing.  Though it may be later like 2026. However my muse is fickle and she may slot it in sooner. I may do it on Vella. I may do several of my T.L. books on Vella. We shall see.

This collection of books will get written. I have tentative covers done and I look at them periodically to keep them fresh in my imagination. Cats and dragons are my favs and their stories will be written.

My T.L. books have timed out of Kindle Unlimited. Some AMZ KDP accounts have been terminated because of piracy. A pirate takes our ebook and puts it on other sites and the author gets their account terminated because that breaks the terms and conditions of KU. I'm probably going to leave my Tina books on/in AMZ/KU but the T.L. books may go to Draft2Digital or Ingram Sparks and go wide. That may be happening in October.  I will keep you updated on that.

Next book in Fallborn Series

The Dragon's Keeper is live on Amazon now. Please check it out. Dragon's Keeper

Now that Keeper is out, I can turn more attention to the next book in the series.

Here is the preview of the cover.


I have this one and the next one after started. I have six books all together in the Fallborn series. The lengths may vary as the characters tell their tales differently. Each has their own style of storytelling. I am simply writing down what they tell me. 

The Dragon's Familiar should be out by the middle of 2022.

The Dragon's Keeper

 Just got the print proof of Dragon's Keeper.

Not quite 100 pages. So I guess it's more of a novella/novelette. But that's the story Rissa told me.

Each character tells me their tale and I write it up. 

The book should be out before Christmas.


Update 12/1/21: Ebook is out and softcover is now out as well.

Fallborn Books

 The pandemic has effected a lot of things and delayed many. 

My next Fallborn book, The Dragon's Keeper, should be out soon. It's been sitting in proofreading land. So it may not be published until next year if a reader/editor is not found.

TDK is more on the magical side than TLDK which had mental powers. Each book is set in a different dragon-affected world. Dragons had or have influenced that world's culture. In all the stories, the dragon and their companion have an impact on said world and bring about change, change that is long over due.

These books are not romance. There are relationships but not of the romantic kind. Not everything is about sex. One can have a close relationship without jumping into bed--or other places--with someone for more than sleep. The story, the journey, is the thing.
