FAQ

Q: Is THE EYE OF CAER WEILEN part of a series?
A: Yes, it is. THE EYE OF CAER WEILEN actually begins several hundred years after the extinction of the full-blooded dragons, which is the true “beginning” of the story. Each generation of the dragon/human hybrid family that is the focus of the series, the Montesquieus, is a story in its own right.
   
Q: Why did you start writing this series in the middle?
A: Because it's where I am now in the storyline. I have been living in Vakronia since I was a child, and that's a lot of ground to cover! I became fascinated with dragons in the third grade, and that was when I developed the dragon world of Vakronia. The dragons have long since become extinct, and my focus has turned to their descendants, the dragon/human hybrids.

Each generation has grown and developed as I grew and developed. So I know what happened up to this point, but I'm living in this particular generation of the family (actually, that's not totally true. I've moved onto the next generation, but I haven't settled on some of the key events yet, which is why I'm not starting there).
   
Q: Will THE EYE OF CAER WEILEN ever be published as a book?
A: I hope so! In order to begin that process, however, I must have a completed manuscript. It is my hope that the ever-looming deadlines imposed by the serial format (two issues each week, each approximately 1,500-2,000 words) will accelerate my productivity to the point where I will actually have a complete manuscript so that I can send out queries to publishers and/or agents.
   
Q: Will you make other stories in this series available as on-line serials?
A: That is entirely possible, but it will depend on the completion of THE EYE OF CAER WEILEN first. I will not begin working on the next story (which may, in fact, cover a previous generation) until I complete this first story.
