Every once in awhile someone asks me why I made the dragons in Slayers vicious animals instead of magical best friends. It’s not that I don’t like the friendly, loyal dragons from Eragon. If I was allowed to have one…The bug-dragon connection–at least in my mind

This is an awesome book trailer and why I love Matt Morrell. If you’re looking for a great trailer, he’s your man. (And how many guys do you know who have three sets of double letters in their name?) Leave…Other Downgrades We Should Make
