Zap Dragon publishes next week! Over the last few weeks, I've shared a couple of other excerpts, so if you're interested in them, you can find them here and here. As for this week, I picked an excerpt that's a little farther along in the Adventure than the other two.

The Zap – Excerpt from the Upcoming Adventure Book Zap Dragon
We're just under a week and a half away from publication! I shared an excerpt last week, so if you missed it, you can find it here. Zap Dragon has so many fun twists and turns! I again struggled to pick which one to share so I settled for the simplest thing and grabbed one… Continue reading The Zap – Excerpt from the Upcoming Adventure Book Zap Dragon
The Sewers – Excerpt from the Upcoming Adventure Book Zap Dragon
It’s difficult to pick excerpts! I used to think it was because these are multi-ending books but honestly, I just find it hard to pick short sections that still give you enough context for the story. Either way, though, Zap Dragon has 14 different endings, so no matter what excerpt I pick, it won’t totally… Continue reading The Sewers – Excerpt from the Upcoming Adventure Book Zap Dragon

Why Zap Dragon
I often pencil in post ideas into my calendar. Then, when I have some time between writing books, I'll check the calendar and get another post done. This usually works great, but sometimes I look at my calendar and have to scratch my head in confusion, trying to figure out what I meant by the… Continue reading Why Zap Dragon
Hidden Mythics II Update #2 – Still in Need of a Title
Some books name themselves. Zap Dragon and Discarded Dragons certainly did and it was incredibly nice to have a title early on. Other books, however, remain elusive. If I'm being totally honest, I still don't love the title Mystery of the Golden Shells but I had to make a decision and this was the best I had at that point.… Continue reading Hidden Mythics II Update #2 – Still in Need of a Title
