    The Beauty of Dragons – A Bundle for Dragon Lovers

    Hiiiiii all! I’ve got a long-awaited dragon bundle running right now. It was a PAIN trying to get this bundle going: I had to get surgery done because of this damn dog bite, I couldn’t do Smaugust because people were in Narratess and didn’t want to be in two bundles at once, and two authors had to drop out because Nrratess just ended.

    This bundle was meant for April, but I couldn’t do it then either because I wanted more sign ups. I didn’t have enough. Thank god I waited because we got more people for it!

    Anyways, here is the bundle itself:

    https://itch.io/b/3897/the-beauty-of-dragons-bundle

    It’s 20 dragon books for $15!

  11. #TimeTravelingGhost EP 12: Post 135 1,802,701 CE, Middlesex, UK

    #Wss366 Rum #TimeTravelAuthors 9/19. Change

    I didn’t go to sleep again. There didn’t seem to be any need. Instead, I thought about what I should do.

    After Weena had a good cry, she crawled over to me and laid her head in my lap. I stroked her hair and spoke softly to her. I was sorry that my rejection had hurt her, but I was glad that it hadn’t damaged our relationship. She was my only ally here.

    By the time light came through the windows, I had a plan. I needed to learn if there were other races in this world besides the Fairies and the Morlock. But where to look? Wells’s time-traveler hadn’t seen any, so they might be hard to find. Asking the Fae for help would be pointless, but with luck, Weena would know. The trick would be communicating with her, but I thought I’d figured that out.

    Below, the fairies stirred and began eating noisily. They were a #rum lot.

    When I descended with my partner, who seemed as gay as yesterday, the diners paid us no attention. There were no thanks for driving off the Morlocks, but I wasn’t expecting any. You might as well expect a butterfly to #change into an ant as the wee folk to reflect on the past or worry about the future.

    After a breakfast of a slightly starchy melon with a pleasant, mild citrus flavor, along with a mix of nuts, round pears, and berries, I led Weena out into the “garden” to a secluded alcove under some nut trees. The screening rhodies would ensure the fairies didn’t disturb us.

    I sat my companion down on a log.

    Time to do my magic!

  16. @Melody_M As an #SF&F author, I've got some opinions about books in the genre!

    I am not seeing all the replies, but I know someone recommended On Basilisk Station by #DavidWeber. This starts a fabulous space opera series with the main character a young naval officer named #HonorHarrington. The spin-offs are good, too. Your profile indicates some military background, so you'll appreciate it more. With a name like "Honor," you can bet ethics and principles come up a lot, and how this conflicts with winning or whether your side is good or bad. The subtext highlights the tensions between western cultures in our age, and how modern nations may look the same if you look at their cities—but Germany, the US, UAE, and Saudi Arabia are quite different when you look closer, and so is how they express their might.

    For pure fantasy, assuming you're new to the genres, why not find #AnneMcCaffery's Dragon series? The spin-offs are good, if you can't get enough. I like #AndreNorton, but her series are retro and may be harder to find than Anne's, with some not in print.

    For #urbanfantasy and books you can buy now, I cannot recommend #PatricaBriggs Mercy Thompson series enough. #Fairies, #Werewolves, and #Vampires coming out to modern society (mostly) and in a way that feels visceral and real. Romance, adventure, and coming of age.

    As a #ClarionWest grad, I'd like to recommend two of my cohort to you, not just because I now them, but they're stories are amazing—and they are great human beings.

    James S.A. Corey (1/2 a pen name for #DanielAbraham). The #Expanse series is hardcore SF at its #Heinlein best. Peak at Daniel's fantasy book, too! Look for the third name he publishes under, and you'll find great, snarky, urban fantasy. References to #PinkMartini, anyone?

    #DianaRowland writes urban fantasy, but with the background of a former police officer (I think she made detective). Start with My Life as a White Trash Zombie for a #zombie coroner. Maybe a conflict of interest there? Start with Mark of the Demon for a #demon summoner who's also a detective, with, again, some conflicts of interest. Adventure, mystery, and romance, too.

    If someone asks nicely, I may recommend my book.
