Hi there DragonHawk Fans!
Welcome to the first week of 2019! More accurately, it's the end of the first week of 2019.
I often get asked about the DragonHawk Saga. More specifically, what is it all about? While making a post on the DragonHawk Saga Facebook Page, I came up with this little description:
"The DragonHawk Saga consists of ten books telling the story of the Hawkes Family and the Tycho Star Traders over three generations of legend, prophecy, and love. Check you favorite ebook store for Dragon Hunter, Dragon Heart, and Dragon Betrayal, the first three books of the DragonHawk Saga."
I kinda like that, so I guess I'll add it to the website and the blog somewhere. I'll have to copy it to my iPhone so I have half a chance of remembering it.
I could use it as a description for a book jacket. I should probably rewrite it so it has more action in it, if I'm going to do that.
Right now I'm working on Chapter 16, titled "Reska" for now. It's a big chapter about an attack on the Reska Trade Station. Not by the Tychos, but rather by a new enemy that has entered the story, threatening the entire Star Trader Galaxy. That's all I'm going to say about them. You'll have to read the Saga to find out what is going on!
On the Parkinson's front, we're kinda in a holding pattern right now. I saw a new Neurologist, who doesn't think I need to rush into surgery for a VP Shunt. He's consulting with the other doctors to discuss my case. Hopefully they'll make up their minds in a couple of days.
In the meantime...
Thanks for reading!

Holidays, Dragons, and Brains
Hello friends of the DragonHawk Saga!
Thank you for reading. I haven’t updated the blog in a couple of weeks for a variety of reasons. Mostly because I’ve been stymied over what to write. Meanwhile we’ve relocated to the grandkids for Christmas. It’s a bittersweet time for me. While everyone is getting excited about the soeason, I’m preoccupied with the future.
The doctors have decided I would benefit from a brain shunt , so I will have brain surgery at the end of January. I have concerns about post surgery, but there’s nothing I can do other than hope for the best to wait and see. Maybe there is something wrong with my brain that this shunt will fix. Everyone seems to think the shunt will help fix my balance, gait, and lessen ny chance of another stroke.
In the meantime, I have my first appointment with another neurologist right after the start of the year. This doctor specializes in Parkinsodn’s Disease. Perhaps he will send us off on another path of tests and treatments.
Meanwhile back in the Star Trader Galaxy, everyone is preparing for war. Not with each other. Rather with a new enemy who has emerged now that all the Drakkon are dead. At least that’s what they believe. After getting chased out of Conborine, Bane Sollar has decided he must abandon his one man campaign against the galaxy.
Merry Christmas!
And as always, thanks for reading!
