Hi Melody

This is a bit nitpicky, but just so you know… There are two typos in the OW tags.
“Striking a pose of smug contentment and pure pride, The Old Warrior Dragon by M. Peña appears to be at the top of the world. Indeed, he is! But look closely… this wise warrior’s assent has not left him unscathed.
Notice his missing and chipped scales, his singed wings, and a slight kink in his tail… all indications that this old tom has earnedhis place in the sun. Etc.”

Shouldn’t the first be “ascent”?

Next time, hire forum members! We won’t take money, just Windstones 😀

I’m a professional proofreader (and translator, but I don’t think you need my skills in this regard). I take care of the prescription packaging and inserts. Trust me, we can’t have mistakes on these!

Read my books! Volume 1 and 2 of A Dragon Medley are available now.
