Hey dragonlings! Welcome to my channel. Here we talk about reading and writing-although mostly writing.You'll find live writing sprints, vlogs, gameplay, writing discussions and more on this channel.

S.D. Hegyes is a pen name Skye writes and publishes fantasy books under. She currently resides in Montana with her husband, two monster-munchkins, a bearded dragon, three dogs, and three cats. She tends to write about monsters (and other creatures that go bump in the night) falling in love.

Hey everyone,

I won't be streaming tomorrow night, Saturday, 3 Oct. I have been asked if I could work some overtime because of some schedule conflicts. Fun stuff! Anyway, I may do a pop-up stream sometime on Sunday, but don't bank on it because I might be too tired after working 6 days in a row. Especially since I start training a new person next week. Weeeeeee...

Stay warm and fly safe, dragonlings!

Hey everyone... I hate to do this, but I'm cancelling today's stream (Day 5 of the #7DBC stream). I don't know if it's just because it's been a long and stressful week or it's because I'm starting to catch what the girls have been volleying back and forth, but I'm beat... And I want to make sure I'm fit enough to do tomorrow's 12-hour marathon.

So, cancelling today's stream, but I'll be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed tomorrow for the next stream.

Stay warm and fly safe dragonlings.

It's that time again! Time for another 7-Day Book Challenge where we try to write a project from start-to-finish in a week.

That means a full week of daily streams and a 12-hour marathon! Woot! Woot!

I'm cheating a bit this go-round because I plan on finishing the project I started in June 2026 during the 7-Day Book Challenge. JUST ONE BITE is a fated mates vampire paranormal romance about a vampire king who discovers his fated mate is a woman who hates vampires.

During that 7DBC, I got just over 40K words. I believe the final word count of the story will be between 70-90K long, which means I have 30-50K left to write, and despite the fact that I have work, I plan on streaming every day that week.


Here's the tentative schedule that's subject to change.

Mon (14): 8:30 AM MST
Tue (15): 8:30 AM MST
Wed (16): 8:30 AM MST
Thu (17): 8:30 AM MST
Fri (18): 8:30 AM MST
Sat (19): 8:30 AM—2:30 PM
6:00 PM—12:00 AM MST
Sun (20): 9:00 PM MST

I'm still doing a 12-hour marathon this time, but I need a longer break between for chores and errands, and need to be able to get up Sunday to play chauffer for the kiddos, so changing up how we're doing things this time.

I hope you'll be able to join me. I'd love to have everyone. If you're doing the 7-Day Book Challenge, let me know what you plan to work on for that week.

Stay warm and fly safe, dragonlings!

No live stream tonight as I have work, but I've decided I'm going to do a live stream tomorrow (Sunday, 6 Sep 2026) to make up for it. I just need to pick a time.

I usually stream at 9 PM MST on Saturday nights but I'm willing to start earlier since it's a different day than normal. Which would you rather do?

Hey everyone!

The fifth short story in the Sultry Solstices series, ISOLATED TRANQUIL, is out now. This is the fifth story in a **short** and **sweet** paranormal romance series where one of seven sisters finds romance with a supernatural creature. It’s available on Amazon as an eBook, and if you have Kindle Unlimited, you can read it for free.

Enzo has never been a violent man. Until her. Zuri Dyer. When a colleague dares to lay a hand on Zuri, Enzo sees red and punches the man, winding up in jail. But, unbeknownst to him, Zuri has a plan to get him out, and he may like it more than he’ll admit.

Zuri has always been the practical and reliable sister who never lies, a joke since she’s a lawyer at a firm working beside someone who cares more about dollar signs than the truth. However, to get Enzo out of jail, she’ll lie at work and pretend he’s her fiancé, which means they’re stuck living with one another until the heat on them dies down and they can “break up”.

But there’s magic among the Dyer sister and the solstice has a way of working its way through them one by one and bringing them together with the people meant for them. Can Enzo and Zuri find a way to let the other into their isolated lives?

For those who don't know, I took a hiatus in July. My intention was to get caught up on YouTube videos as well as finish the projects I'd been working on (the final stories in the Sultry Solstices series) and come back strong in August.

Well, I didn't film a single video in July and haven't had a chance to yet in August either. And I didn't complete the series either. Close! I'm on the last 2 stories, but didn't finish.

Part of it was burnout I believe. I've been trying to finish this series since the beginning of the year it turns out (I discovered that tidbit of info when I was consulting my 5-year planner earlier) and part of it is because I started a new job in June that left me exhausted when I got home, and I've been scheduled across three types of shifts (morning, evening, and night) since I started.

I'm finally almost finished with Sultry Solstices. I will finish the last 2 stories this month, and my schedule becomes consistent next week, but I think I'm going to continue my hiatus into this month, so there won't be any videos or vlogs posted.

That said, I will be doing Saturday night live streams at 9 PM (mountain time) and maybe a pop-up stream here or there as I see fit if I need the peer pressure, but no vlogs or videos this month. Next month for sure!

Thank you for your understanding.

Stay cool and fly safe, dragonlings!

Hey everyone!

The sequel to *Imagined Overdue* is live today. I’ve published the third story in the Sultry Solstices series, *Protected Alone*, today. Each story in the series follows one of seven sisters as they find romance with supernatural creatures, and the series is the first in a larger world called the Sevenity Universe.

This is a **short** and **sweet** paranormal romance story. It’s available on Amazon as an eBook, and if you have Kindle Unlimited, you can read it for free.

Louis has been hibernating in his stone casing longer than he cares to admit, long enough that he's no longer known for the creature he actually is. That is until a woman's voice entices him to shed his shell and claim her for his own.

Asha has spent several summers helping her best friends with their cleaning business, and this job would be like the rest if she weren't drawn to the strange human-sized gargoyle in the backyard garden. When the sun sinks and the moon comes out though, she discovers there's more to the stone figure than meets the eye, more than she can handle.

Only the magic of a solstice night can help Asha and Louis move past the traditions of their individual cultures and bring them together in a meaningful way.

Years ago, Sebastian made a promise to the best friend he loved in silence. Now, he's purchased a bookstore to fulfill that promise, but something's destroying the store, pulling books from shelves, and only one person can help. The same friend he hasn't spoken to in fifteen years.

After fifteen years of marriage to a man she couldn't be completely honest with, Josefina has finally found her voice and is being true to herself, using her abilities as a witch to help other supernaturals. Her first client? A man she hasn't seen in fifteen years, the same man their mutual friends once claimed left because of her engagement.

Some say the solstice is a time of magic, but can two people who used to be best friends rekindle a relationship after fifteen years? Can it become something more than friendship?

Hey everyone!

A reminder that I’ll be on hiatus the entire month of July. No vlogs or videos will be posted, and there won’t be any live streams either. I’m hoping to get caught up on videos again since I have to re-film all the ones I’d already done where the audio was ruined, but I won’t be posting any again until August.
