The Gals Guide Podcast is also having a logo change!
Incase you haven't heard, we have a podcast! Each Monday we have a new episode talking about a gal of history that reflects our monthly topic. Right now we have 316 episodes! That may seem scary but we have a very nice list of all of our episodes on galsguide.org. If you have a favorite woman of history you can hit the good old ctrl F and see if we've talked about her.
You can find the podcast everywhere you like to listen to podcasts as well as on galsguide.org.

Our dragon’s name is Debs.

Debs is a delightful dragon named after our friend and author Debra Kemp.

We called her Debs. She said that only her friends could call her Debs. She also said that if you wronged her, she would murder you in her next book. She was a perfect mix of friendly and fierce.

Gals Guide founder, Leah Leach, met Debs at the Indy Writers’ Group. Debs was quiet, reserved, and always thinking. She was eager for feedback and quick-witted for those who didn’t like her feedback.

Debs was the author of the House of Pendragon Series. Debs wrote stories about Camelot, asking a simple question: What if King Arthur had a daughter? The company that published the House of Pendragon Series went out of business and Debs’ books went out of print. In 2023, Leah was gifted the publishing rights from the family.

Debs died suddenly in 2015. By naming the dragon in our logo, Debs we hope to keep her legacy alive and inspire more people to “carry on the tale.”

If you would like to know more about Debs the 97th episode of the Gals Guide Podcast is all about her. You can also learn more about her on our Debs page on galsguide.org
