So the question I received yesterday really got me thinking about the drakeas species. While I did explain a lot of their attributes in the books, I feel like a little more detail might be beneficial. We see people like J.K.

Throughout both books, you seem to allude to the idea of an interspecies relationship between a dragon and a human. I was just curious if you could elaborate on how that would work?

Hi Jim, I just started reading Drakin. I have to admit, your cover designs are what drew me in. The first cover on Raiya is badass! I’m just curious how you come up with yours and where you go to get yours done.

Hi Jim, I was actually hoping you could help me out with a problem I was having. I’m currently writing a book that will be part of an established series. It’s been a pretty good run so far, but I’m worried because this next book actually takes place before the one I just published. I got this idea fairly late in the game, but … Read More Linear Writing Rule?
