Happy Game of Thrones Sunday everyone! This is a great piece called Daenerys and Drogon by Polish deviantartist Michał Rychtyk, posting as Afternoon63. I usually prefer dragons with four legs and wings, instead of this wyvern-type with two back legs and his wings on his forelimbs, but this guy doesn’t look like he has any trouble getting…
I switched up my days for posting this because yesterday the Writing Thoughts post just had to be written and wouldn’t leave me alone, so I hope you forgive me. This week’s Discover Challenge theme is, appropriately, Apology: Apologies — giving them, receiving them, accepting them, withholding them — are powerful ….

Write what you know about dragons! ~ Scott Westerfeld on Instagram 5/14/16 I had to share this for my Writing Thoughts this week, because it’s just such good advice, don’t you think? 🙂 I ran across this picture today of Scott Westerfeld, the author of eighteen YA and adult novels, through the Facebook page of Todd…
Look at this adorableness! A dragon, a cat, and tea — all of my favorite things! This is Teacup Dragon painted by Dutch deviantartist Tamara Rouwendal, posting as TamaraR. Tamara created this artwork in collaboration with a friend of hers, American deviantartist and writer Darin LaGarry, posting as C1nderellaMan.

I used to call this the Tuesday Discover Challenge… and since I moved the post to Wednesday, I guess I could have renamed it. But the whole point of doing this writing challenge every week is to move my new cyberpunk story forward, to get Neeka’s Story on to the page, so I thought I’d…
The contract between the author and the reader is a game. And the game . . . is one of the greatest inventions of Western civilization: the game of telling stories, inventing characters, and creating the imaginary paradise of the individual, from whence no one can be expelled because, in a novel, no one owns…
This awesome painting is called The Evertide by Todd Lockwood, and is the cover art of Todd’s first novel, The Summer Dragon: First Book of the Evertide, just released today! I preordered my copy of The Summer Dragon and received it right away in this morning’s mail. I’ve already read the exciting prologue, and can’t wait to read more in this…
So I’ve decided to do Game of Thrones-related dragons every Sunday for the run of Game of Thrones, starting with last week and running through June for Season 6.
