Made for

Authors writing, or wanting to write, dragon-rider and dragon-academy stories.

What this is

Dragon-rider stories run on machinery most craft books never touch: a bond that's half love and half harness, a school that trains children for a sky that kills adults, a power that always keeps the receipt. This workbook works that machinery directly, one exercise at a time.

Each of the 52 exercises asks you a precise question about your story and gives you the tools to answer it on the page. No theory chapters to wade through and no filler prompts; you write your own world's answer, and the answer becomes material. By the final exercise you've plotted a dragon-academy story that's yours from scale to sky.

Made by a sci-fantasy writer who wanted this book to exist and couldn't find it. I built it for my own desk first; that's true of everything on #-my shelf.

What's inside

Seven sections, 52 exercises, each section carrying its own dragon mark:

  • Foundations of the Bond : where rider and dragon become one problem
  • The Dragon as Character : a creature with wants, not a mount with wings
  • The Academy : training, rivalry, and rules worth breaking
  • Power and Its Cost : what the fire takes in return
  • Flight : writing the sky so readers feel the drop
  • Trials : the tests that turn students into riders
  • The Cost of the Sky : synthesis, graduation, your story plotted

Three complete sample exercises, exactly as they appear in the workbook.

Sample exercise pages land here once the interior design exists: real spreads, the section marks, and one full exercise from Foundations of the Bond.

Is it for you?

For you if

  • You're writing, or itching to write, dragon riders, dragon bonds, or an academy in the clouds.
  • You want exercises that produce story material, not journal warm-ups.
  • You like being asked hard, specific questions about your world.

Not for you if

  • You want a general dragon-lore encyclopedia; this book stays with riders and their sky.
  • You're after passive reading; every page expects your pen.
  • You need genre-neutral prompts; these are dragon-shaped on purpose.

Questions, answered plainly

What exactly do I need to use it?
A PDF reader and something to write with. The workbook works read-on-screen with a notebook beside it, or printed. It prints clean in colour or greyscale.
What if it isn't right for me?
Full refund within 30 days, including for this digital product, and if you're outside the window write to me anyway. The whole policy is a page of plain words.
Can I use what I make with it in my own books?
Everything you write in these exercises is yours: your world, your characters, your story, no licence strings. The workbook itself is for your personal use rather than resale.
Is this only for novels?
No. The exercises build story material that works for novels, serials, novellas, or games; the machinery of bond, academy, and flight is the same wherever you tell it.
Does it get updates?
If the workbook is improved, the new version goes to every past buyer through the same private link, free.
