Dragonsinn turned 27 in mid-June 🎉
I managed to get a few posts out with July’s move approaching…and realistically, I may or may not have time to blog during the next several weeks.
With this week’s heat wave (ew), I stayed mostly indoors today and finished one more post in between moving-related tasks.

1. Recent Posts
- Dragonsinn Through The Internet Ages: A companion piece to the original 2024 timeline post, taking a wider‑lens look at Dragonsinn across internet eras from the late 90s onward.
- Dragon Costume Design in Chinese Historical Epics: I was obsessed with the level of detail when I first watched this film. Gong Li was stunning, and the gold dragon costume worn by Chow Yun‑fat’s character remains one of my favorite examples of cinematic dragon design.
- Introducing: Micro App #1: A tiny yet exciting addition to the site.
- Dragonsinn: Year 27: Film crew expansion, etc.
2. Other Updates
- Added a few more pins onto the global dragon street art map.
- Added new Aputamkon sea serpent artwork to Dragon Echoes in North American Indigenous Lore.
3. What’s Next
- Poetry:
- I noticed in my YouTube dashboard that some people found my channel by searching for “poems about nature and the environment.”
- That reminded me of the eco‑poetry chapbook I drafted months ago.
- I may publish those poems here on Dragonsinn, with some anchor dragon imagery, since my personal blog has been feeling more like a way station lately.
- YouTube:
- I enjoyed making the Dragonsinn: Year 27 video, and an updated channel trailer.
- I don’t love filming in the summertime, but if I see something interesting I won’t say no (though I’ll grumble about the humidity).
- Blog:
- I have a few “collectibles” posts in mind.
- Recently I found some great dragon thrift store type of finds. A few are damaged and I’m gonna try and DIY rehab their broken wings.
- As mentioned at the start of this post, I’ll be moving quite soon. Keeping fingers crossed that the internet will be installed smoothly 🛜
Thanks for reading.
