here be dragons

Working hard on Rainbird at the moment, and I have dragons on the brain. Not the cute cuddly kind, nor the telepathic loyal-forever-and-ever sort.

No, these dragons are big and scary. Beware of them.

It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, if you live near him.

~ J. R. R. Tolkien, The Hobbit

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

    Oh how about my favourite?

    “Things change:
    Authors and wizards are not always to be trusted:
    Nobody can explain a dragon.”

        I’m going to read them soon — or listen. My husband and I just watched the first season and LOVED it. Your dragons made me think of it.

    I just found a good dragon quote in a Goodreads newsletter:

    “Never laugh at live Dragons.” — JRR Tolkien

    You had a Tolkien quote, too. I think he knew dragons pretty well. {SMILE}
