I actually don't think I can say I have any dragon-related fandoms. But twenty years ago I was affected profoundly by a children's book, The Dragon Takes a Wife by Walter Dean Myers. Poor gentle Harry the dragon has to battle a knight to win a bride, and he's not so good at it, in spite of (or because of) the well-meaning magical help of a black hippie fairy...
The artwork in the first edition was charming. When I tried to track it down years later, all I could find was a later version with truly hideous modern illustrations--until a friend found a paperback version of the original. It remains a favorite birthday present. :)
