Stories are strange things. You spend months—sometimes years—building worlds in silence, arguing with outlines at two in the morning, chasing ideas that arrive at inconvenient times, and occasionally staring at dragons on your desk wondering why this became your life.
And then one day those stories exist in physical space, sitting on tables where actual people can pick them up and carry them home.
On May 17, starting at noon, Megan and I will be at Plus Ultra Coffee inside Bradley Square Mall in Cleveland, Tennessee, and we’ll be there until closing.
Megan will have the complete (to this point at least since there’s one more coming) Wings of Wisdom series available in hardcover, including the newest installment, Roderick’s Perilous Journey. And honestly? It may be my favorite one yet.
We’ll also have:
🐉 3D-printed dragons from the series
📖 Bookmarks
☕ Coffee and whatever experiments Roy has unleashed in the test kitchen lately
As for me, I’ll have all five volumes of the Realms Unwritten prompt books available as well. Those books were built for people who love storytelling in all its forms—writers actively working on projects, people trying to get unstuck creatively, or readers who occasionally think, “You know… I kind of want to make something.”
Mostly, though, I’m looking forward to conversations. One of the best parts of these events is meeting fellow storytellers, fantasy readers, mythology nerds, aspiring writers, dragon enthusiasts, and wonderfully creative people who wander in because they saw a dragon on a table and got curious.
That’s usually how the best conversations start anyway.
Also worth noting: ⚔️ One Piece Day is coming to Plus Ultra Coffee on July 18, and if you know me at all, you already know I’m excited for that.
If you’re nearby, come spend part of the afternoon with us. Bring questions, favorite stories, writing ideas, or just your curiosity.
