Hi. I'm D.C. Harrell, fantasy author. My stories blend together my dueling desires to explore and to come home, and adventures at the intersection of science and spirit thrill my soul. I hope they capture yours, too.

Reading has always been my favorite form of entertainment (and education). My favorite authors include J. R. R. Tolkien, Edith Pargeter, Robin McKinley and Patrick Rothfuss. I guess the next best thing to crossing the threshold into another world is creating it.

Readers writing back to me is the best part of writing! I love it when they explain how the story intersected with their own experience. About the Dragon Fairy Tales in general, one of them said: “You provide a very believable fairy tale atmosphere without being distracting. It feels ‘right.’” (less)
