How did the tale of the slayer Deneas and the dragon Trelleir came about?  Usually  I start off with a few lines of a premise. Sometimes it even flows into a short story. And that is where I thought what eventually became Fire and Amulet ended. However, fantasy worlds seem to be filled with pushy characters. Before long, they start to whisper in my ear and the original map in my mind gets tossed aside as the characters pull me along on their quest to find their destiny.

Trelleir is a true dragon whose magic allows him to take on human form. The last of his kind, he longs for companionship. However, his only friend is not only a human female, but a slayer. Sworn to kill all dragons, including him.

Summoned by the village council, Deneas is sent on a quest to kill any and all dragons, and cannot return without proof of her success. Finding the mythical creature and avoiding its deadly talons and fire are not her only problems. Another slayer follows with orders to kill her. As she retraces her slain mother’s footsteps, she learns the world is not what it seems.

Part fantasy, part romance, Fire and Amulet chronicles what happens when you’re a dragon and you have a slayer as a friend.

I’m a former feature-story writer and correspondent, but my first love is fiction. The descendent of a coal-miner’s daughter and an aviation flight engineer, my writing reflects the contrasts of my heritage and crosses genres from historical adventures and westerns to science fiction and fantasy. In the world of fantasy romance, I am the author of the Dragshi Chronicles and The Windmaster Novels. My stand-alone novels include the dragon magic fantasy, Fire and Amulet, and the dark fantasy, Imprisoned in Stone.
