TECH LEVEL

In the Akrodaxis, the årdrakin, ilteni, celaya, khamonar and probably a few other species all have highly advanced tech. They are the galactic superpowers. Other races like the triziad and lorelein are still advanced but not as far along.

CHEMISTS OR ALCHEMISTS?

I'm sure there are chemists and alchemists in the Akrodaxis! But I haven't yet had the need to create any specific characters who fall into these roles. Maybe in the future!

EVOLUTION OR CREATION?

For the årdrakin, the books mention their animal ancestor as well as the drakinvïr, a small flying dragon that they are related to. So, they evolved.

I think the other species in the Akrodaxis were also born of evolution. But you never know!

There is a lot of science in the Akrodaxis. It's a galaxy of space-faring species, so they depend on science every day just to exist. But not everyone has the same level of understanding and there are a few (like the skarastaja) who are just discovering what science is.

Guess what, fellow Albertans! If you live in or near Olds, you can visit Pandora's Boox to pick up a signed copy of The First Sin! They have five paperback copies in stock at their wonderful shop.

Please don’t give up!
Image: Tumblr post by mypoorfaves Text: If you're a creator and you needed to hear this today: You have no idea how many people lurk on your work. No idea how many times people go back to revisit your work. How big they smile when they simply think about your work. How fast their heart beats, how excited they get when they see that you posted something. People are shy with their feedback. Sometimes it's because they're simply shy. Other times it's because they assume you already know how great and talented you are. Could be both. My point is, even if you barely have any likes or reblogs, don't get discouraged. You have a lot of silent fans, but they are still your fans. Keep on creating. Because there is always someone out there who will love what you have made.

LAST BOOK & LAST FOOD

The last book I read was The Backwards Knight by Matthew Siadak. It was pretty good!

The last food I ate (at the time of this being scheduled) was lemongrass chicken, rice, and a piece of banana bread.

If I discovered a secret library, the first thing I'd do is look for any leather-bound fantasy or scifi books. After that... I might try to see if my own book was in it!

I won't quote the first line of the book I'm beta reading, but the first line of the book I want to read after that one is:

Some people never deserve redemption. Some sins are unforgivable. Some darkness is too black to be saved by the light.
