Welcome to Kissin' Lizard Press. Yes, it's owned by me and houses all of my Star Trek Voyager fan fiction as well as original novels. I'm excited to say that I've begun a dragon series, the first novel of which is Riftwoven.
My dragons are sentient partners, loving and kind, to their riders. This is a far cry from other dragon series. These stories involve lesbian, woman loving woman, tales of survival and hardship while keeping love firmly in mind.
While Riftwoven is the first in the series, I hope there will be many more to come. I am already working on books two and three, as well as other stand alone stories having nothing to do with dragons. I really don't know what's wrong with my brain. I have thirty stories in my list of novels that I want to write.
Riftwoven is available on Amazon now. Simply click on the title anywhere in this message or on the cover image below. There is also a 'view button' below the cover.
Thank you so much for visiting my site. I hope you find something to read here that sparks your imagination.
In a world stitched by memory and flame, one rift threatens to unravel it all.
Captain Cordelia Serin crashes onto the haunted shores of Draythmire when her star‑faring vessel is torn from the sky. Here, time fractures, myths breathe, and a malignant Blight spreads from a widening rift between worlds.
At her side rises Vaeler, the golden dragon queen whose magic can hold the unraveling at bay. Together they face corrupted creatures, shifting landscapes, and the growing influence of the Unraveler’s will.
But Cord is not alone in this fight. A gifted mage bound to her by duty and something deeper may hold the key to closing the rift before the Blight consumes everything.
To save their world, Cordelia must confront the ghosts she carries, the futures she fears, and the myth she is destined to become even as love, fragile and fierce, threatens to reshape her path.
A tale of sacrifice, sentience, and the quiet power of chosen bonds, Riftwoven is a science-fantasy odyssey where fairy tale meets fracture, and legacy is stitched in starlight.
About the Author
S. Y. Thompson is a PRISM Award-winning author as well as a seven-time GCLS Finalist whose life has been defined by high stakes and deep ancestral roots. From her early days writing Star Trek fan fiction to publishing fourteen expansive novels, she has always looked toward the horizon. But her stories are grounded in a reality few get to see. She is an honorably discharged US Marine and a former San Diego County Deputy Sheriff with a history in Top Secret intel. That ‘boots on the ground’ experience gives her science fiction, paranormal, and mystery novels an unmistakable edge of authenticity.
A woman of Cherokee and Scottish heritage, Thompson lives at the intersection of her ancestry and a life-long dedication to the land. When she isn’t exploring the depths of the mountains and forests, she can be found tending to her registered wildlife habitat. Known to her neighbors as ‘Dr. Doolittle,’ she finds her greatest inspiration among the animals and the ancient Tennessee woods. For Thompson, writing is more than a craft. It is an immersive, sensory-rich journey into worlds where tactical grit meets a wild heart.
