Journeys in the Real World #mfrwauthor


Welcome to the monthly topic from the MFRW challenge. The topic is "Real life locations you have used in your books." First off, I write fantasy so using actual places isn't possible. That doesn't say that locales from around the world don't inspire sites in the worlds of imagination.

In Windmaster Legacy, Dal's mother's homeland, Tarekus, was inspired by the Australian outback. One of the landmarks that appears is Uluru also known as Ayers Rock.

The dragons of The Dragshi Chronicles sitting on a ledge beneath the rim of a volcano's crater to bask in the warmth of the bubbling rock below. The dragon in the picture is Ollea, the first dragon to break shell in many generations. Hawaii and KÄ«lauea Volcano provide the locale.

The culture for FIRE AND ICE from the novella and short story collection First Change: Legends From the Eyrie came from time I spent in the orient.

If intrigued, click on the covers in the banner for excerpts, a free read of the first chapter, and of course, buy links.
