Last Chance to be a Founding Member!

The Society of Enlightened Dragonologists is set to launch next week.  We are still taking applications to be listed as a founding member.  We will first and foremost promote that dragons are:
1. Real
2. Intelligent
3. Magical
4. Universally different as humans.

We will also be promoting any illustrator, artist or author who depicts dragons in their full beautiful array.  From the most evil to the most gentle of these magnificent creatures, we will see that the word is spread that dragons are more than just a target for the end of some fame seeking knight's lance.

Join us today and become a founding member!!

How to Train Your Dragon 2

Unenlightened Dragonologist could pick up a few pointers from this film. 

As an Enlightened Dragonologist I will point out just a few you should take particular not of:

1. Do not antagonize your dragon. (He may threaten to drop you off a cliff.)
2. Keep items around for your dragon to entertain themselves. ie. logs, sheep, fish etc.
3. Do not try to control baby dragons. Go with the flow, or flight, as the case may be.
4. Stroke, pet, nuzzle, scratch your dragon often. They love gentle human contact.
5. Avoid dragon slobber. It is difficult to get out of clothing.

Dragon Kites

I have the best dentist. He has a dragon kite in each of his patient rooms. 
This one was in my room. 
Something to look at while getting my crown done. 
Almost makes it worth going to the dentist. 
NOT!

On the Origin and Evolution Through the Course of Natural Selection of Dragons

"On the Origin of Dragons, all dragons, like every living thing in this world, evolved from some primeval life form through the course of natural selection. I, as a student of Dr. Earnest Drake, do believe, that dragons evolved from some undersea reptile some billion years ago.

 Through the process of natural selection, this undersea reptile found fit to evolve into something larger and deadlier, in order to catch prey that was evolving to become larger and deadlier. This was the first dragon. However primitive, this dragon was about three feet long, two feet high, with a serpentine body and four legs. It evolved a muzzle, to catch prey, and teeth to tear them apart. This dragon is believed to be colored blue, in order to blend in with the sea.

The First Step is to Get Known!

I was able to share the upcoming website for dragonologists.com when a local reporter interviewed me for our local paper.  Already we are building a membership and a reading base.  I have a new article I received which was quite informational and I look forward to posting it for you all. I have asked official permission as it was sent to me but no permissions were attached.  Our list of artists and writers is growing and I can't wait for launch date. I have seen the website previews and it is quite beautiful.


First Newspaper Article that I didn't write myself!
