Someone just sent me a picture of the UK Dragon Moon cover. (Thanks, Ryan.) Here it is.
It’s lovely isn’t it? It’s always exciting to see new covers. It’s the one part of the production of a novel that the author has little to do with…and in the case of overseas covers, nothing to do with. It’s interesting to see the different interpretations in different parts of the world.
The other UK covers have also been the USA covers, so I assume this will be the case for Dragon Moon as well.
Dragon Moon will be out in Feb or March next year in UK and July in USA.

I have a short story in a new collection called Top Stories 1 published by Heinemann. There are great stories by Australian writers such as Isobelle Carmody, Margo Lanagan and G
arth Nix. I feel privileged to be alongside such famous authors!
Australian students might find it in their school library.

I haven’t done a post about my dog Rita for a while. She’s about 18 months old now and very smart.
Her favourite thing in the whole world is her ball. She is obsessed with it. She wants us to throw if for her all day long. While I’m at the computer I have to throw it down the stairs for her. She prefers to be outside with the ball of course and never gets tired of running after it. No matter how far you throw it.
She likes to swim after the ball in the river as well, even though the water is freezing.
Just lately, she has started walking up and down the piano when she wants to get our attention. So we like to think she’s musical as well. Her compositions are very contemporary, atonal pieces.
