FINISHED!!
Here ye, here ye!
Last night (or rather very early this morning) I hit the final keystroke and completed Dragon Guardian: Water!
Now all that's left is the editing process!
This of course brings up a very important fact...
With my having finished the writing process earlier than anticipated, it's entirely possible that the editing process be finished earlier than anticipated, which means that it's entirely possible that it gets published BEFORE August!
I am SO excited!

Updates and Preview!
Hello everyone!
I know I've been quiet lately, but that's only because I've been tirelessly toiling away on my book Dragon Guardian: Water, the second novel in my Dragon Guardian series! However, I'm happy to announce that I am closing in on the end! After I finish the chapter I'm currently working on, I foresee only two chapters left to write, and then it comes down to the last bit of editing!
The end is in sight!

Musings on Character Development
Hello, my friends!
I'm taking a break from all the writing I've been doing in order to share with you something that has made itself evermore clear to me during all the time in which I've been toiling away.

Without giving away any spoilers, I can honestly say that Marin is not the only character that shines in Dragon Guardian: Water. Fan favorites like Du...

Dragon Guardian: Fire; Chapter 14 Snippet
Marin's eyes were wide with fear, but she did not waste time with screaming. Instead, she leapt to her feet upon her bed and attacked--recalling that Nicodemus had said that fire was very effective against undead. "Fireball," she cried before hurling the ball of flame in her hand towards the reanimated corpses closest to her.But it was not to be.The undead emerged through the wall of fire completely undeterred and continued closing in upon Marin. The half-elf gulped and her palms grew sweaty,...
