Hi all,
As it's Pride Month I've wanted to make a blog post but I wasn't sure what to write about. Then, as I was going over my notes for the Elemental Dragons series, I decided to write about the dragons. Not all of them get a chance to explore their sexualities in the books so I thought I would expand a bit here! This will include dragons from Elemental Dragons, Original Elementals and the Short Story Collection.
Short Story Collection
Russet - A female dragon who is Bisexual.
Moon - A male dragon who is Gay.
Elemental Dragons.
Drea - A female dragon who is Asexual Aromantic.
Cerberus - A female dragon who is Lesbian.
Winter - A female dragon who is Demisexual Bisexual.
Fortune - A male dragon who is Closeted Gay.
Original Elementals.
Devouring - A female dragon who is MtF Transgender.
Arcturus - A male dragon who is Asexual.
Turf - A male dragon who is Bisexual.
Maelstrom - A female dragon who is Pansexual.
Shadowhunter - A female dragon who is Lesbian.
Sunrise - A male dragon who is Asexual Aromantic.
A lot of the dragons do have crushes on each other that might not have been obvious in the books. For example, Cerberus has a huge crush on Drea, even though the other dragon can't stand her. Fortune likes many of the male dragons in the series but doesn't feel comfortable enough to explore his sexuality.
After years of trying to understand my Bisexuality I think it's important that I create a diverse cast of characters. Their sexualities may not have massive impacts on the books, but they're still a part of them. I think it's important that even the dragons have a wide range of sexualities because there are people out there who want to read about it. My books will continue to feature diverse characters and relationships that are not heterosexual! One of my favourite LGBTQ+ couples so far is Bastet and Sekhmet in Curse of Anubis - the two goddesses are so cute together!
That's it for this week, I hope you enjoyed reading! See you next week.
