Bio
Starting from the fairy stories and poems of childhood, I've always had an interest in the fantasy, adventure and science fiction worlds. Although I've done a lot of writing over the years, I've published only a few short stories and poems.

Songs from My Father
Songs from My Father By C. Jyl Parker Sharla had gotten used to the stream of condolence letters and flower deliveries, but the high-pitched whir of a drone delivery was something new. She was just heading into her house after checking her mailbox, and the noise made her turn. Such a big package from only a medium sized drone. The box was oblong, and the return address label was smeared. Sharla took it inside and placed it on the kitchen table. She cut open the tape with a paring knife and found an old guitar, exactly like the one her father had given to her when she was a teenager. It even had the same style embroidered strap on it with silver trim, and the strings were four nylon and two steel. Everything about it told her it was the same guitar.

Ancestry
Ancestry By C. Jyl Parker Roscha the Red folded her wings ever so slightly as she descended toward her mountain lair. Landing on the ledge to the entrance, she ducked below the rocky ceiling and entered the tunnel to check the nest of her three dragon eggs. It had been a century since she attempted a clutch, and for that matter, find a mate. Any day now, she would have three babies. She had mated with an older silver dragon from the Lost Hills, so the young ones would likely be either red, silver or a combination of the two. There was also the ancestry to consider, as her sires were not always red, nor were the ancestors of her mate all silver.
