The Clan Chronicles: The Trade Pact
The Trade Pact trilogy, originally called "The Trade Pact Universe," encounters the Clan once they've settled onto Human worlds and are quite satisfied, more or less, with their situation. Things are, of course, about to change. Sira has come of age. There are Humans very much aware of the Clan in their midst.
And then there are the Drapsk.

My first manuscript. Not the one anyone's seen, mind you. I dug it out of storage for this photo, to prove I really did use Roman numerals as the titles for my stories. When I decided I'd be showing other people this one, I had to give it a real title. So I picked a line of dialogue from the latter half of the book, A Thousand Words for Stranger. Apparently, I'd had second thoughts. The crossed out versions here were "I Am, Myself, A Stranger" and "To Myself a Stranger." Glad I went with my first thought and that my editor liked it too.
