Uncle Jim: Blog

My computer went down for a hard drive and a bad video card. Am back up now but still getting everything in order and back the way my old computer was. Am doing a little writing, but need to catch up putting it in the computer.

Keep Well,

The new chapter has been sent to the Moderators for posting.

This final chapter of Dragon Wytch is rather lengthy and opens with Maddy and Ken dining out, but not in the usual fashion.

During Matty's OB/GYN appointment, we learn a number of interesting things.

The following day a number of Dragon offspring arrive seeking direction from the Dragon Queen. Ken suggests what they could do. Later other offspring arrive with a much different agenda. The Queens in the Jewel take a much different approach to them. Maddy settles things, and they learn more interesting things.

The following day, the Queens in the Jewel have their demonstration, which is recorded by David De Tocqueville and members of the Executive Committee. The demonstration is quite effective.

To finance their Security Company business, Maddy advertises some gold and jewels for sale. With the money raised, they open their business. Later Maddy delivers her twins before Book 3 ends.

I hope that you have enjoyed the Ley Line Witch series so far. There is a Book 4 planned, but I am taking a break for the present time. Over the last three years I have posted 11 stories on SOL. This has taken up the majority of my time. I wish to pursue other interests for a while, but will do some writing along the way, as I have a number of stories in progress. They will not appear as quickly as the previous stories have. I wish you all well in the interim.

Keep Well,

This weeks chapters open with Maddy's experiencing morning sickness. Sunday afternoon David and the Executive Council address the Mayor and City Council.

Maddy locates an OB/GYN on Monday. There is also an attack by a pair of Dragons. They are dealt with, and Maddy spends the next three days in discussions with the Queens of the Past.

Meanwhile, David and the Executive Council are trying to figure out what went on.

Eventually, Maddy explains to Ken what she learned from the Queens, and what she explained to them. Later, they go flying in their Dragon form but around Atlanta.

Monday of the next week begins with trouble and gets worse. Dragons are arriving from all over and are ready to fight. Maddy must stop them. She is assisted in that by the Spirits of Magic. During the Dragon war that follows, Maddy chases and catches the one-eyed Green Dragon. Later there is much repair and restoration work to do in Atlanta.

The Narrative changes many times during these two chapters, and you will need to pay close attention to who is speaking.

Enjoy these chapters; more next week.

In this week's chapters, Brenda actually reveals how to reach the entrance to the nest. I got a little ahead of myself last week in the description.

At the park Maddy, Ken and their Familiars finally get to enter the nesting site. There are several surprises along the way. The biggest is the ghost of the former Queen. There is a little problem when they are ready to leave.

Maddy's announcement that she is the new Dragon Queen has a stunning effect on all of those outside of the mountain. She and Ken are followed home by the other Dragons and eventually by the police and the reporters.

She deals first with the Dragons who doubt that she is the Queen. She sends them home after convincing them. The police and the reporters arrive following that. Maddy has a statement for the reporters.

David arrives to retrieve the DVD disk from his camera. He stops to talk to Maddy and Ken. Later they watch the news to check on how her statement is presented.

David and the Executive Committee are up late determining what they can tell the Mayor and City council tomorrow.

These are busy chapters and the point of view changes a number of times.

Enjoy these chapters; more next week.

There is a lot of action this week. The chapters open with the Guardian telling Maddy where to learn more about the history and culture of the Dragons. She, Ken, and their Familiars spend considerable time and energy trying to locate the entrance. They finally locate it but are unable to reach it.

Later at home, Josh arrives with a problem. Gangsters have kidnapped his girlfriend. Maddy and the crew go with him to rescue her. It isn't difficult, even without the use of Magic.

That night, Brenda reveals how to reach the entrance to the Nest. The following day, Maddy, Ken, and their Familiars enter the Nest and are surprised by what they find there. Deep in the Nest, they are confronted by the Ghost of the old Queen. When they are ready to leave, they discover that things have changed while they were inside.

Maddy becomes an aggressive leader in these chapters but is still unsure about some things.

Enjoy these chapters, more next week.

I wish to thank all of you who read "Broken Witch" during the Clitorides Awards, and especially those who voted for it. It was a very lively competition this year with many strong stories.

Keep Well,
