Project Update: The Azure Dragon Released!
I woke this lovely rainy morning (no judgement, I live in the desert; desert dwellers often love rain) to find that the third book and bookmark had been unlocked!
I am overwhelmed by the support of this community, my friends, family, and readers. Thank you all so much!
In the books, the Azure Dragon of the East, Qinglong, is referred to as Dragon Father. Now, according to Drake, the titular dragon in "A Dragon for Darius," Qinglong loves Drake best of all his sons.
Sure, Drake, sure. (I'm not going to argue with a Guardian Dragon.)
So, now, when I say to you, the Dragon Father is available as an add-on for those who've begun their collection, you know who I'm talking about.
His Auspicious Hummingbird bookmark is also available.
As a reminder, we've left our cover artist in the dust so Dragon Father's art is not yet available, and the images on the site are placeholders. When it is completed, it will feature the Azure Dragon, a long-tailed hummingbird, and the element Wood.
Now, before you go, you should check out the rest of the bazaar! There are tree gods, mechs, vampires, princesses, and so much more! Back three or more projects for their corresponding bookmarks (this project's TBB bookmark is different from those that match the book's covers); back ten or more projects to receive an anthology with art, shorts, and poems by the authors in the Book Bazaar.
