Collection 1: Perspectives and Perceptions is a gathering of voices-some clear, some fractured, some still figuring themselves out. These pieces move through different moods and moments, ranging from quiet reflection to confusion, disconnection, humor, and memory. Each one offers a look at how we see the world, and how the world sometimes sees us. There's no single message here-just moments captured along the way.

Have you ever wanted to meet your favorite characters in the books and comics you read? What if you became part of your very own hand written story and lived amongst those very same beloved characters you grew up with? Now imagine, that not only are your favorite characters are with you, but every person, thing, object that was ever written about are within reach too. All of this is located in one place, answers and questions through out time. But, with the good comes the bad. Have we learned enough about our past not to repeat it in our future?

Dragons like princesses. Everyone knows that. But the kingdom of Teana is pretty lacking in maids of the royal variety - which must be why Alannah finds herself tied to a pole, surrounded by sheep, and in the most ridiculous white dress she's ever seen. Only she's not a princess; she's a witch. And she's not interested in being another notch on this dragon's belt. All she wants is get back to her Grandmother's shop, and back to her normal life. But she's days from home, and her only assistance is a blundering knight-in-training, a recently captured slave - and the dragon, who follows them around like a curious puppy. A large, dangerous puppy that can look human whenever it chooses - yeah, she's definitely in trouble. BETA/DRAFT: All rights reserved. Visit www.lemedlock.com for information on upcoming stories.
