I'd like to think I'm on a path not unlike yours (finished my masters in chemistry and realized I would like to be a writer) what is the most surprising thing you learned on the journey so far?
N.K. Jemisin
Success. :) (::grumble, Goodreads won't let me post just that as an answer, so here is my grumbling to flesh it out, lol::)

First, a compliment, The Fifth Season Trilogy was brilliant! I've recommended it to many friends who complained about the use of second person and claimed this caused them difficulty reading. My question is why did you make this choice and do you care that this seems to cause some readers to not become immersed in the story? (You shouldn't, it's their lose)

I don't have a question I just wanted to say you're awesome and I really loved the Inheritance Trilogy. Parts of the mythos reminded me of Gaiman's Sandman in a very good way. Or actually, now that I start writing I do have a question - what are 3 authors/series you'd recommend because you like them?! I found your series via a Reddit thread and am constantly looking for new series to read
