    I also have an omnibus of Daniel Hood call A Familiar Dragon. The guy inherits the local wizard’s familiar, a tiny dragon who communicated telepathically, and both of them end up solving crimes.

    I have to try that! It sounds adorable! (And I’m already envious – why can’t I have a tiny telepathic dragon?!)

    There’s Jane Yolen the Pit Dragon Trilogy, and of course, Lackey’s Joust series.

    How could I have forgotten the Pit Dragon books? I’ve only read the first two, but I loved them! What neat dragons!

    I’ve completed the first novel (getting it published is almost harder than writing it!) of my series

    Wow, that’s awesome! Good luck with publishers! (It really does bite about the no-unsolicited-manuscripts thing. So many of the writers I love got their start from an editor’s “slushpile” that I hate how the practice has declined!)

    Maybe you should look into Web publishing — eBooks? Isn’t there a somewhat well-known site out there that does that (reputably, I mean)? Or am I thinking of some hardcopy printer’s website, like the Baen Free Library? Hmm.

    Either way, let me (okay, all of us Forum-goers) know when it does find a publisher! I promise to buy a copy! 🙂

    Interested in buying or trading for: GB Pebble Sitting Red Fox in dark grey, Lap Dragon Test Paints (Water Sprite, Glacial Pearl, Opulence, Pastel Rainbow, and many others - see my Classifieds ad), Blue Morpho OW, GB Pebble Loaf dragons in blue/aqua/teal, and Griffin Test Paints (Black Rainbow or Frosted Jade).
