Nope, it’s not a new fantasy novel (although I am working hard to finish one of those, too). Originally I was not going to publish this but only get copies for my own kids. I’ve been working on this story for my kids for two years. But my wife has convinced me that I should share it with you all, so here it is.
This is my first attempt at writing and illustrating a children’s book.
This simple story shows how a small act of kindness can bring contentment and happiness. The little table is bought from a used furniture shop, but on the drive home he falls off the car and lands in the dump. His owner discovers him and brings him home to fix him up and place him in front of a window.
If you have little ones in your life who might enjoy this story, you can purchase off Amazon or direct from me. Please send me an email with your request.

Hi Joseph, Couldn’t put it down, eh? 🙂 I am glad to hear it! “Neverqueen” is the next book in The Sword of the Dragon series, but the direct sequel to “Key of Living Fire” should release next year and it is called “In Search of Dragons.” Currently I am writing ISOD as well as “Neverqueen 2.” Who is your favorite character so far?
