I haven’t mentioned this before, but black dog books have created a special “mini” website for the Dragonkeeper series. There is information about Chinese places and things that feature in Dragon Moon. You can download Dragonkeeper wallpaper for your computer or you can try and solve the puzzle that Ping has to solve in the story. Also there is an audio interview with me. Click here to visit the site.

Carole’s Dragon Moon bibliography is now up at the Research section.
There’s also a link to it from the main Dragon Moon page.

I got a bit of a shock when I received a copy of the French version of Dragonkeeper in the post yesterday. It took me a moment to realise what it was. That’s because the title is Liu et le Vieux Dragon or Liu and the Old Dragon.

At first I thought it was someone else’s dragon story. Then I saw my name on it and realised it was mine! They’ve changed Ping’s name to Liu. I don’t know why, perhaps ping means something unpleasant in French. Even more confusing since the emperor’s name is Liu. They’ve change his name to Meng Li. I don’t know how I feel about that. The emperor was a real person, Liu Che was his actual name. I wonder what else has been changed?

It was 26 degrees in Brisbane, it felt like I was in a different country. Even though there’s a drought, the sub-tropical vegetation still looks amazing to a southerner like me. My hotel was across the road from the Roma St Park which was gorgeous.




Back in Melbourne it’s 15 degrees. But I’m not complaining, we have had some rain.
