Exile No More
Read the other books here... There weren't always dragons in the valley, unless you counted the common misconception that occurred whenever Brek and Khial patroled together, high enough that they looked like a single winged reptile, rather than a Lizardman and an Avian warrior.

Maidens of the SeaRunner-Up in Tales Retold Challenge
As with most of the other short stories in this book, "Maidens of the Sea" was inspired by an online writing prompt about an alternate possible origin of mermaids. Mermaids and similar beings appear in mythology all over the world, each version with a different kind of origin, from Assyrian goddesses to Greek naiads and sirens, so I doubt that one more will make a difference

In Defence of "Twilight"
Late last year, I watched the 10th Aniversary of Twilight for a friend’s birthday. I’m not normally a fan, but when you’ve been friends for 20+ years, you make sacrifices.

The Weaver
A brief re-telling of the Myth of Arachne. There are several different versions of that myth, but frankly, few of them end with anyone in particularly positive light. Most versions focus on Arachne’s undue pride and the perceived arrogance of calling the Gods on their actions. I wanted to explore the other side, where Arachne was doomed as soon as Athena showed up, no matter who wove better.

Broken Trust
Originally published here Something I’ve been working on for a while, after numerous discussions/rants about Greek Mythology. One of those was whether Hera was oversimplified, because there were several of Zeus’s children who didn’t earn her wrath. Therefore, this was born.
