Chris Cannon | The Possibilities of Paranormal
Why do I write about shape-shifting dragons? I love all the possibilities
involved with supernatural/paranormal worlds. In GOING DOWN IN FLAMES, Bryn
learns sheβs a shape- shifting dragon when flames shoot out of her mouth for the
first time. Sheβs immediately thrust into a new world she doesnβt understand.
Since Iβm creating the world, I gave her a couple of perks to balance out the
bad stuff. Due to her new faster shape-shifting dragon metabolism, she can eat
whatever she wants and not gain weight. I think thatβs a common female fantasy.
Iβve never said, βIβve had enough double stuffed Oreoβs, Iβll stop now.β Itβs
always more like, βI need to stop eating the double stuffed Oreoβs while my butt
still fits in my jeans.β
I also wanted to create a world where males and females were equal physically in
power and strength when they were in their supernatural forms. As a small woman,
Iβve had to ask people to carry heavy things for me most of my life. I hate not
being able to finish a project because I canβt move something where I need it to go.
When Iβm really happy, I dream that I can fly. To me the ability to fly
represents absolute joy. As a dragon Bryn loves to fly, and sheβs better at it
than anyone else. When she tries to come back down to earth and deal with
people, she stumbles and often falls. Itβs a running joke in the book that she
flies like the wind but her landings suck.
Like most people I look for an escape when I come home from work. Iβm a speech
therapist by day and master of my own universe at night. GOING DOWN IN FLAMES is the
first book in Brynβs adventures. Book two is on the editorβs desk and Iβm at the
midpoint in book three. I plan to explore Brynβs world as long as I can. I hope
youβll stop by and visit. Iβd love to interact with readers and hear what they
think of my shape-shifting dragon world. I can be reached at my website.

I didn't think that I would give this book a second thought, but after reading your thoughts on it, along with a bit of humor, I decided that I would really like to give this book a try. Dragons have never been on my list of books to read, but that slight bit of humor that you added, was just the right touch to give an edge to your book!! Thank you for making me a possible reader of your books!! (Peggy Roberson 12:00pm July 10, 2014)
