“If you don’t see the book you want on the shelf, write it.”- Beverly Cleary
I love this quote so much I had it tattooed on my spine. Maybe one day I’ll post a picture of it. Until then, you’ll have to make do with a good story.
A little about JT Base:
I'm a part-time math teacher and yoga instructor, but a full-time mother and farmer’s wife.
I’ve always loved stories that let me step outside the ordinary and into worlds where magic is real, dragons exist, and the impossible might be waiting just around the corner.
Writing lets me live so many different lives, all of my own making. Some have magic, some have dragons, and all of them are places I love getting lost in.
I still believe everyone deserves a little happily ever after. Sometimes you find it in a good story, and sometimes you find it in the life you’re already living.
Either way, there should probably be dragons.
Three eggs. One tired mom. Zero idea what comes next.
Fantasy adventures are supposed to happen when you're young. Before the mortgage, the teenagers, and the knees that make noises when you stand up. Calla Barrett is well past that stage of life. Unfortunately, nobody told the dragon.
She had a plan: survive parenthood, drink hot coffee, and maybe find five minutes to herself.
It did not include dragons, flaming eggs, or being told she was “The One” by a strange old man at her daughter’s martial arts dojo.
But when the egg he hands her begins whispering—and then hatches into a dragon—everything changes. Two more eggs follow: one for her daughter, one for her son. Now, this small-town Oklahoma family is flung into a magical war spanning realms. Her daughter is furious. Her husband is skeptical. Her son just wants to go back to bed.
Everyone assumes the prophecy must be about one of the kids.
Because seriously, when does destiny ever pick the mom?
The dragons—and fate—have other plans.
Now, this sarcastic, overextended mother must bond with a fire-breathing beast, survive martial arts training, and protect her family from creatures she doesn’t even have names for yet. All while keeping up appearances at the PTA.
But when enemies break through and tear her family apart, everything changes.
She thought she had time.
Now, it’s war.
Perfect for readers who grew up on fantasy and are ready for the mom to get the dragon for once.
