Tooth Fairy Day

Happy Tooth Fairy Day.

Couldn’t let the day go by without celebrating Tooth.

So anyone got some good Tooth Fairy stories?  Either from childhood or from your own children?

Blog Glitches


Pops up quickly.  WordPress updated – which always breaks something.   Lately I’ve noticed that the ‘read more’ line is disappearing in the emails that are sent out.   This isn’t too much of an issue if it’s a Sylum Snippet or Afternoon Fic – you just get the story in your inbox (please do make sure to stop by the blog to leave comments).

But for something like Sylum Trivia or Top Ten List – you’ll need to stop by the blog to view the post to click on the contact form to fill out the answers.

In time an update will pop up for themes, plug ins etc and it will be fixed.  But until then … we’ll just have to work around it *sigh*.

Afternoon Fic: The Dragon General (Part 1)


Yes, an actual Afternoon Fic.

Though I’m in the middle of the move, I’m posting the first few sections, as a treat to everyone – I think we could use it.

Author’s Note: This is for my other half, who is encouraging the Obi-Wan/Cody bunnies. And with everything going on, this has been keeping me sane, when the rest of the bunnies have been packed into boxes.

2nd Author’s Note: This story is set inside the Dragons of Interest Series. Just in the Star Wars universe, there won’t be any crossovers with John & Harold.

3rd Author’s Note: I’ll be updating sporadically, I will say I got a good portion of this written, so yay for that.

4th Author’s Note: The language you’re seeing is Mando’a – yes there is an official language for Mandalorians.

Sylum Inspiration: Okoyo

Ghost/Darkness: Hunter

Okoyo doesn’t talk about her childhood.  She lost her family to slavers, and when they came for her, she fought hoping for a quick death.

Only to be saved by Ababuo, who attacked the slavers killing them all.

She traveled for a few years with Ababuo, learning about Vampires, the Medjai, and how to fight.  In time she asked Ababuo to Turn her and be trained as a warrior.
