D'VAIRE

I have always found it strange that people in the world of the Council of Sorcery and Shifters are so interested in me and what I’m doing. It was my father who altered the course of my life by kicking me out of his dragon court, then telling everyone who would listen what he thought was wrong with me. Five dragons followed me out and that was the foundation of D’Vaire. As you know, we spent centuries hopping all over the beautiful land of Europe before Emperor Chrysander made the decision to accept Arch Lich Chander Daray’s invitation to not only join the Council but take it over. We moved to North America and not much changed for us beyond the landscape until Dra’Kaedan knocked on my front door. What those dragons that followed me couldn’t have known was that I kept secrets. One of them was my suspicion that I’d once met Reverent Knight Drystan Gylde-Kempe before he was resurrected. I didn’t know for sure, so I never said a word to him, but when his other half Conley got his memor...

I’ve got a birthday coming up in a couple of weeks, so I thought I’d share with you the big gift from the husband. The pictures have been sitting in my office for too long and I need to hang them, but I’ll get there eventually. For now, they’re resting comfortably next to the giant versions of the chibis I ordered on canvases which are also waiting to be tacked up somewhere. The chibis kind of stare at me while I write which is fun, but I also know Dra’Kaedan is up to no good and it’s distracting. 😜 I just ordered what I think is the last of the stuff I want to bring with me to GRL so that’s one thing I can check off my to-do list. We’ve made our hotel arrangements to spend a night in Arizona on our drive out but no final decision yet on whether we’ll stop anywhere on our way home. We may do something completely foreign to us both and wait until we get there to figure it out. I’m still working on the same book. It’s 150k! I can however see a dim light at the end of the tunnel and ...

The fantastic chibi versions of Dra’Kaedan and the emperors at the center of the picture were created by the incredibly talented Jen Fowler of Fofo Art which can be found at: https://www.facebook.com/artbyfofo/. She absolutely brought these guys to life and I love them! This is some of the goodies that will be accompanying me to GRL. A big thank you to every one of you lovely readers! It means the world to me that you're still excited about visiting D'Vaire. What did you think of Chrysander and Ellery’s story now that you’ve gotten to read both halves? I hope you liked it! When you write something that is two books long you spend a great deal of time with the characters so as you can imagine I’m quite attached. Chrysander has certainly been in his fair share of the D’Vaire series and Elf has already made several appearances in the ones that I’ve already written since I finished Drakeling & Elf. I pared down their playlist after I finished their journey. Many of th...
