 I had such a wonderful time at the Royal Medieval Faire this past Saturday! 🐲 The draw winners have been notified and I await their responses! 📚 All sold out of first run hardcover copies of Sloth the Lazy Dragon and only a few other softcovers left. Thank you to everyone who purchased a copy...may your whole family enjoy this Dragon's tale. 🐉 From the Mirror World Publishing website: The much anticipated sequel to Unreachable Skies is finally here! In the first installment of this scifi/fantasy adventure we met Fate Seer Zarda and through her we learned of her people, the Drax, and the plague they had suffered which resulted in the next generation being born without wings. Now, the wingless and their dams have been banished and against their ruler’s wishes, Zarda has decided to join them and use her visions and the knowledge she received from her mentor to see them through. This, is Exile. Check out Mirror World for more on this anticipated sequel!
