Hi, my name is Sophie Duncan. I'm an author of fantasy, paranormal, horror and erotica. Welcome to my blog. Here I'll ramble on about the books I'm reading and writing, ebooks, publishing and anything else I happen to think of.
So, what does that mean? Well, each day, I'm going to tell you about a dragon - a dragon inspired by a name that I generated randomly using a name generator. I haven't looked up the derivation of any of these names; for each one, I sat for a while, running it through my head, saying it out loud, thinking about any cultural connotations the shape of the name gave me. I thought about how they made me feel, their sound on the tongue, and then I decided who each dragon was.
Each day, I'm going to tell you all about my Dragon of the Day, and share a flash fic about their lives. Any genre, any character, any look - prepare to be surprised and (I hope) entertained by my dragonly inspirations :).
Good luck to everyone else doing the A to Z Challenge this year, I look forward to checking out the daily posts.

I never played that game - it's good to have a favourite dragon, but I don't know if I can choose. I've both read and written dragons, the ones I've written are like old friends, I rather like Miri from Bonds of Fire, and the one's I've read or watched stick with me - of course there's Smaug from The Hobbit, and Idris, the Welsh Dragon and his family from Ivor the Engine.
Hi Sophie - good luck and enjoy those Dragon Diaries ... I'm sure I'll be around- cheers Hilary

DeleteDragons are almost as cool as horses - well they're hotter than normal steeds anyway.
ReplyDeleteI like horses, and they have the advantage if being real, but you can't beat a dragon for the height of cool! ;P
DeleteI love dragons! My #1 dragon will always be Mr. Dragon from the classic Mac game The Manhole, which just isn't the same in its updated version.
