- New: Due to issues with a commerce plugin at the site, Dragonfly is now selling e-books at Etsy: safe and secure downloads for e-books only. Our print books are currently out of distribution and not available, but I’m still looking for a Canadian distributor.
- I’ve been remiss on writing in the blog lately, but in place of it, please subscribe to my Dragonfly newsletter, which talks about the exciting field of eco-literature every month and ties it in, usually, with stuff happening in my life.
- It’s 2025! Notice that we have a new logo, which will be included on future books. So what’s happening in 2025? We’re not yet officially announcing our new novel yet, and it is still untitled, but it will combine ideas from some of our earlier shelved ideas (such as Up the River).

- After a trial period with a separate blog website, I’ve decided that during our move to new hosting I will remove the Clara Hume blog and move the blog back to this site. Please visit the original blog to read more! I will also be removing the website I set up for Finn Wilder books. I just don’t have the time to produce enough content for that site, and all you really need is to follow along with any new books here.

- As I continue to transition my own books from Moon Willow Press, and move away from Amazon, I’ve set up a Smashwords site for my e-books. Check there to buy Dragonfly Pub books in e-format.
- I finally added some of the older books from Moon Willow, including the Lost Ages series of short stories and the children’s story The Little Big Town.
- Announcing the second edition of Winds of Change, an anthology exploring short stories about our climate. The title was originally published in October 2015, and 15% of its sales go to 350.org. The book is still being used in universities teaching about fiction and climate change. Because of this, we will not change any of the beloved stories but will offer a new cover, updated author biographies, and a new introduction.
- Fairly new this year are two new services: book reviews and editorial.
