Understanding Dragon Types — 8 Comments

  1. This is so sweet!! I love little Lizzy’s voice. And such interesting information too, it’s nice to be able to put a form/face (sort of) onto your dragons’ names.

  2. I loved how Lizzy thought how wonderful it would be to exchange letters with a Lindwrym. Her affinity to dragons and looking at them with a less critical eye than her father, makes her so endearing. I must say your development of all the types and and their personalities is well done! Looking forward to the next book!!!!

  3. Learning about the different types of dragons is fascinating!! 😀 I love hearing little Elizabeth’s voice in her writings.

    What is your source for all things dragonish? Or are these lovely creatures products of your vivid imagination?

    Thanks for teaching us more about dragons! I can’t wait to see what happens in the third book!! I’ve already read the other two twice each. 😉

    Warmly,
    Susanne 🙂

    • I have been trying to start from established mythology, then add my own spin on it. So they are not entirely original, but a lot of the details are. Like the ‘thumb toes’ on tatzelwyrms. Those are my addition, inspired by the rathor dragonesque polydactyl cat we got from my son. I also try to reference existing creatures. Major dragons are apex predators and I try to parallel some of those realities as well. So, yeah, its a bit complicated. hanks, Susanne!
