Please join me in welcoming veteran paranormal romance author Deborah Cooke to the site today. Well known for her Adult Dragonfire series, Deborah will be launching a new paranormal YA spin-off series on June 7th from NAL called the The Dragon Diaries featuring the next generation of Pyr dragon shifters. If you missed my review yesterday of the first book, FLYING BLIND, I called it, “Swift and fun, just like I’d imagine flying on the back of a dragon…the innovative mythology and mature storyline should please readers of any age.”

1. Bring chocolate - and hide it from the guys.
2. Nail shape shifting - so you can do it really fast.

4. Stay in touch with your best friend - otherwise the testosterone levels will make you crazy.
5. Think fast.
6. Bring extra socks - it's cold out there.
7. Dress for war - this is a fight to the finish.
8. Listen to advice - even when it comes from an old woman in your dreams.
9. Research the variables - so you know what you've got to work with.
10. Don't believe everything you're told - especially if it sounds too good to be true.
