Who am I? I'm an author who has launched two other projects on Inkshares. The first, Shadow of the Owl, though it didn't fund, ended up being a self-published book, and the sequel Shadow of the Panther is currently up for funding through Inkshares. When the Sword & Laser Sequel contest was announced, I was initially pretty bummed because I had JUST won Nanowrimo 2015 by completing 1/4 of the manuscript for Shadow of the Panther. Then I realized that I have a project I was intending to write this spring, a new novel in a different genre altogether. And I thought "Why not?" Fund two books at once? That's just so crazy it might actually work.Amanda.Orneck.com
