My brother and I are embarking on a new adventure!
Or rather… fulfilling part of a dream that’s been percolating for 13 years.
Flash-back with me to Christmas, 2010. Grant had an idea. A vision. A dream of a family publishing and production company that would come together and work towards the publication of my books and the production of Brittany’s music. We would combine our talents, work towards a common goal, and create family-friendly entertainment together.

I have always loved the story of Oliver Twist.
I know that some of my readers may be scratching their heads right now, trying to figure me out. I’ve never tried to make it a secret that I don’t like reading Charles Dickens’ books.

Another dragon alights on the soccer field, and lets out a large exhalation of flame. I sigh a little as the last of the crêpe paper goes up in a tiny poof of smoke.

The only major problem with hosting the dragon awards is that so many of them have dragon FRIENDS and they all come to the ceremony. We have to have somewhere in the ballpark of 200 dragons out there!

I’m not here to point fingers…
But this has got Nefarious Villains written ALL over it.
As you know, the Silmaril Awards Ceremonies can get a little… chaotic at times. The villains are always scheming, the imps are always… mischiev-ing…
They’ve never attempted to take over before the actual ceremonies. However, it appears that this year they’ve managed it!
