New Chapters & Blooming Projects: A Summer Catch-Up from Pearl Dragon Studio

Yes, it’s been a while since my last post, but the silence hasn’t meant idleness. Most days I’m juggling projects on every front, and the blog simply slipped to the sidelines for longer than I planned.

Garden & Home Projects
Work on the food forest and garden continues—just at a gentler pace while Florida’s summer heat tests human endurance. In the shade, I’m turning the back porch into a true four-season retreat, tackling it one small step at a time.

Writing & Publishing Updates
The bigger news lives on the creative side. I wrapped the artwork for my first children’s environmental adventure, then walked the entire publishing gauntlet to learn each step firsthand. Now that I’ve survived the process once, I feel confident rolling out the next titles.

  • The debut book is available as an e-book through major online retailers—or directly from my site (e-book and audiobook) at a lower price since there’s no middle-man.

  • I’ve also opened a Free Reads section where you can enjoy short stories at no cost.

  • Draft chapters of the Pearl Dragon series are posted for an early peek—remember, they’re previews, not final edits.

  • On top of that, a new dark-fantasy novella series is in motion. If all goes well, the first book’s final draft will reach stores by late summer.

Quick recap:

  • Site redesigned for smoother navigation

  • Free short stories ready to read

  • First storybook published and live

  • Several more books approaching the finish line

Feel free to explore the updated site—especially the food-forest section if you’re curious about my progress or want to start one of your own. Thanks for sticking with me, and happy reading!
