30 Day Book Challenge - Day 15
Favorite male character:
Peter Pan or Dax Praxx
Haha! Nice. *bows* I take this as the highest of compliments. Now of only more people knew I existed… That would be awesome.
2If Dax were an adult and my book were magically a movie, I would beg this man to play him… No, seriously. Hands and knees, begging.

ABNA Reviews!
ABNA Expert Reviewer:
What is the strongest aspect of this excerpt?
The writing is very descriptive and captivating. The story line is unique and I am suspecting also borderline sci fi, which is different for a young adult.
What aspect needs the most work?
The excerpt had so many different things going on. The plot seemed a little bit lost in all of the different scenarios.
What is your overall opinion of this excerpt?
This story will catch the attention of a wide range of readers including young adult. I felt a little bit of “sci-fi” vibe from the excerpt provided.
ABNA Expert Reviewer:
What is the strongest aspect of this excerpt?
I thought the story was good. I’ve heard it all before but I thought this author had a fun story to tell that young adult’s would enjoy reading.
What aspect needs the most work?
I thought it was pretty good. No flaws jumped right out at me.
What is your overall opinion of this excerpt?
It thought it was good. There aren’t that many psychological thrillers about mental hospitals anymore and that could be a popularity point. The author has a good way of making everything seem a bit benign but letting the audience know more is going on.
eBook for Sale!
I decided to open up Dax for eReaders. I’m hoping to broaden the audience a bit, so I figured… why not? The price is much cheaper, going only at 2.99! For those of you that don’t know:
This is my psychological mystery, based around a thirteen year old genius accused of murdering his parents. Follow him as he tries to piece together the puzzle and the shattered fragments of his own mind.
Role Playing Dax!!
Just as an interesting side note, and so a few people can really get to know the character, I’ve created a role play account for my good friend Dax Praxx. The setting is half his actual world and half of ours primarily because I can’t draw and there’s no real way I could get across what his world looks like without going into extreme detail in every post.
So the fun part! it took me a little while to decide who to use as a face claim and I finally decided on the adorable Logan Lerman:
This picture sealed the deal. This expression, his disposition, everything. If by some odd burst of magic and dreams a movie of my book was created, this boy right here would have to play older Dax. *hands go up* I’m just saying.
Now, I don’t role play with just myself. That seems kind of silly to me, really, but Dax’s all time biggest fan has offered me up two of their best characters to write against!
First Shana:
A very sweet, hidden genius who has a soft spot for fixing the broken. Don’t get my wrong, she’s no Mary Sue, but I’ll leave her quirks to the reading. *nods to that*
And Lee:
Who is… by far my favorite character of theirs. A snarky Japanese man. Sexy, brilliant. An artist. A family man. Martial artist. Shit, am I drooling again…? *clears throat* Anyways!
The plot is going to follow an alternate universe merely because I really don’t want to accidently reveal any spoilers to the actual book. Dax is the only character that you’ll see that will actually BE in the book, but if you like snarky jackasses then maybe you could check it out anyways.
Don’t worry though, the sexy Japanese man gets his own book later……… SO! Moving on! Take a glance, read a little, browse. Enjoy!
And don’t forget to check out the book itself! Dax Praxx!
You can find Dax’s page here: http://folded-genius.tumblr.com/

And Lee’s here: http://from-the-ashesrp.tumblr.com/ (his is still in the making, so bear with the writer ^_^ thank you!)
My First FanFic! How awesome is this!?
You can’t beat having fans, even if you only have one or two. My book being uploaded to FanFiction.net is one of the highpoints of my writing career. I can’t help but feel an immense sense of pride and happiness at knowing my work is good enough to draw enough attention for fanart! Thank you, Namine09!
Saw THE best thing I’ve ever seen in reference to my book!
I want so badly to post it, you have no idea! But it’s spoilerific and I can’t… Damn it, damn it! It’s so perfect!!
I feel as though this caption works easily for Dax as well. Ah, a beautiful cross over… My favorite manga (and character) mixing perfectly with my own character.
