Hello, he greeted her cheerfully. You must be Alan of Trebond. You're very hardy to have made it this far the first day. Has anyone said what we try to learn in here? Alanna said the first thing that came to her lips. The only thing I know is that I jump when I'm told to and I have no free time.

And I'd say, I know, girl, buy you're what I have and I'm going to take care of you.

After I recovered from 'Lioness', I wanted to write something about animals because I really like mythical creatures, especially dragons. At 12, I was one of those semi-recluses who did better with animals than people. Out of that, came the character, Daine, who could communicate with animals.

Men broke into their homes, killed their families, threatened you--and you won't let them do anything for fear you'll be hurt. That's selfish. How would you like it if I took your bow and said I cared too much about you to let you fight?
Tamora Pierce
Goodwin scowled at her cup. With all due respect, my lord, I hate it when you make sense.
Tamora Pierce
If I have to 'catch' a man to get a husband, I don't want one.
