Book Recommendations and Helpful Dogs

Hiiii lovely everyone! It’s been a minute (or, you know, four years! heavens!) since I last blogged, but does it count that I think about blogging fairly often? (No?) 😊 Actually, for a while I’ve been thinking about starting a newsletter — fun idea, maybe? Then I could essentially go back to writing my blog, but in the form of . . .

Covers and Voting and Hugs

Hello loveliest people in the world! I have been thinking about blogging at you for a while, but it is tricky because I have like…800,000 different emotions every day?  And about half of them are hopeful but the other half are of the let’s-all-go-hide-under-the-covers / need-more-ice-cream variety, so I keep trying to catch myself in a happy mood to write . . .

Off to Write Book 14! :)

Hello kindest, most brilliant readers, OK, it’s time to turn off every other part of my brain except the parts that are writing book 14, from now until it is done!  I imagine I’ll return to find a couple of tiny barbarians who’ve gone feral and forgotten this “math” of which we speak, but right now it’s either homeschooling or . . .

The Wings of Fire dragons don’t have the fancy technology that our world does, and for the most part I think they’re doing OK without it — but one thing I know Starflight would LOVE, if he could get his talons on them, is audiobooks.  (Instead he has Fatespeaker, who is pretty happy reading scrolls to him . . .

Dragons in Self-Isolation

Hello lovelies! To keep my mind off the news, I’ve been thinking about what the Wings of Fire dragons would do if this global pandemic/quarantine situation happened to them.  I mean, Clay is clearly a comfort baker, don’t you think?  He would 100% show up outside your house to leave baskets of scones and muffins on your doorstep…unless he accidentally . . .

The World Turned Upside Down

Hello loveliest, most wonderful readers, I know, it really shouldn’t take a global pandemic for me to return to my Neglected Blog (that’s the official title now), but here I am — in my house (all the time! forever!), and thinking about all of you and how you’re doing and what a few dragons might do to help.  I’m supposed . . .
