Description

Every time something goes missing from the village, Sir Violet makes his way to the dragon’s cave and negotiates the item’s return. It’s annoying, but at least the dragon is polite.

But when the dragon hoards a person, that’s a step too far. Sir Violet storms off to the mountainside to escort the baker home, only to find a more complex mystery—a quest that leads him far beyond the cave. Accompanied by the missing baker’s wife and the dragon himself, the dutiful village knight embarks on his greatest adventure yet.

The Dragon of Ynys is an inclusive fairy tale for all ages.

A Note From the Publisher

The Dragon of Ynys was first published in May 2018 under a now-closed publisher. Sensitivity issues were identified in the 2018 edition, which the author and a new publication team strove to resolve for this 2020 edition with a team of editors and sensitivity readers. It was important to ensure that the trans characters’ voices were centered, and to challenge the mistakes characters made without eliminating their flaws. We hope you will enjoy the 2020 edition of The Dragon of Ynys.

Marketing Plan

The Dragon of Ynys is intended for a wide audience, primarily those, of any age, who love fairy tales, dragons, or stories of acceptance and hope. It was written as the fairy tale the author wished she'd had as a child, but it is intended for adult readers as well. The Dragon of Ynys can be read by adults and children, by adults to children, and in groups or story time sessions of any composition. It should be enjoyed by those desiring aromantic and/or asexual representation as well as trans representation, and those who would enjoy the storytelling of an aro, ace, and genderqueer author.
