Question for Dragon Enthusiasts

Hi,

The first response from the first beta reader: Bad guys aren’t bad enough.

“Hmm,” was my first response. Second response: Let me make him meaner, louder, more cunning, and a little better looking.

As I plot out the marketing campaign for Home & Dragons, I need some help.

Thanks for your help!

P.S. The more responses I get to the survey, the more likely you’ll get a surprise in an upcoming email.

2026: A Year of Artistic Wonders and Surprises

December was all about go, go, go! Despite all, I kept up a full working schedule and I’m pleased to announce:

Home & Dragons is done!

It’s with beta readers now. So, I’m taking a week to chill and do some prep for the next project.

December began with a wonderful and long anticipated vacation to – take a guess – picture below.

And then came the visits with family and friends, complicated with whatever the new bug is that’s going around. (Knocked me out a full week!)

Lots of news coming soon, but loose-lips and all that. Want to shout them out, but can’t yet.

So often it’s the forgotten who possess the power to change the world.

In a realm where power teeters on a fragile edge, “Pariah’s Lament” thrusts you into a spellbinding adventure of destiny, courage, and survival.

May we all have a great year in 2026.

Peace,

L.K. Latham

P.S. Give yourself a free read or more this holiday.

Happy 25 December!

Once again, I’m covered in glitter from decorations that I swore would tone down, and that’s okay. It’s fun.

 I hope you’re able to relax and enjoy the season as we wait to bring in the New Year.

From the gang of Midnight Whispers and Home and Dragons: Happy Holidays!

Sorcerer Christaan De Rein’s return to Liverpool does not go well, starting with the fact that his trusted apprentice, Higgins, dies on the way. Then again, Higgins dies a lot. Of course, Rein doesn’t expect to be welcomed with open arms after being banished for nine years, but a cryptic summons from The Musician herself cannot go unanswered.

Flying Through December

Why does time seem to fly in December? 

I’m in edit mode on Home and Dragons: Having a blast fixing/adding/removing all the little details. Today, I’m re-orienting furniture in the living room in one scene, and updating a Gnome’s family tree in the next. And on top of it all, I’m baking (Yes, I use the holiday to bake lots of treats) and gift wrapping and making travel plans. 

Whew! What a month! And we’re not even halfway through.

Seeing the picture makes me think that it might be easier to get the editing done if I didn’t have so much clutter around me, but it sure makes the writing part easier.

And yes, that’s tea in my mug.

Som today, I’m taking time to clear off the desk of all those wee tasks that pile up when your single focus is on one project and only that project. Please don’t get me talking about my 2026 business plan. That creates even more clutter. I also want to do some decorating. I love putting up a glittery wreath and little trees with lots of sparkle.

In all the rush, I keep reminding myself of this slogan: 

Don’t let the holiday gremlins get you down.

Peace,

L.K. Latham

Fight off the gremlins with a new read.

Happy Thanksgiving Day

Dilys  stumbled into Home & Dragons with no clue about what was going on. She works hard, plays hard, and hates all the people hanging around her house making that “stupid show” even it means the old homestead gets a full remodel, which it sorely needs. She has no money to do the work herself. 

She often asks herself where the renovation money comes from. Problem is, she’s not sure she wants to know.

With everything going on, a little one-on-one with her newest little friend, is a welcome respite.

She was born in Wales, the daughter of physicians, who were themselves the offspring of physicians. Granddad worked for years to convince Dilys to join his concierge medical practice in Austin. She loved living and working in Cardiff, until he said the magic words: “Willie Nelson is one of my clients.” That did it for Dilys. She was on the plane in no time flat. To say she was disappointed with Granddad’s medical practice is an understatement. 

It’s fair to say that  without a chance meeting with a gardener, an attack by a dragon, and a few new friends, she’d have fled home to Wales by now.

Peace,

L.K. Latham

P.S.  Don’t worry about Dilys’ T’day plans. Assuming she’s not working, she’ll catch up on her sleep, which she sorely needs.
