SMEDLEY AND 'NA
A Dragon and His Girl

In the story that launched it all, Daughter of the Beastly Beauty, 'Na gets a message from her parents that they've found Smedley, her pet dragon that was driven out of the enchanted castle when he accidentally set fire in the castle library.
In subsequent stories, Smedley shows up and even helps in solving some wonky magical problems.
So that got me thinking ... wouldn't 'Na and her pet dragon have fun adventures as they were growing up together?
I've already mentioned in other stories about the fuss at 'Na's christening, and why she was named Belladonna -- shortened to 'Na -- and other bits and pieces that are a good foundation for what's going to be a rollicking good time for two feisty children who can't speak the same language but still understand each other, growing up in a castle filled with broken, insane, wonky, troublesome magic.

Last year, I was invited by fellow writer and friend from ACFW Ohio, Bettie Boswell, to share a booth with her at Skunk Fest, taking place in North Ridgeville, Ohio, on September 14. She has several children's books that she illustrated, with skunks in them, so ... it was a natural.
I got to thinking ... 'Na and Smedley are going to have some crazy adventures. Why not one with skunks in it? Why not write a novella to make available at Skunk Fest?
Thus ...
THE SCENT OF ADVENTURE was born.
Available in paper and ebook.
And the incredible cover art is done by Bettie Boswell.
Anyone in favor of making Bettie illustrate ALL the Smedley and 'Na adventures?

Available in print and ebook from YeOldeDragonBooks.

And eventually, audio!
