We hit our 70 reader mark! It's time for another raffle! Congrats to....
Penguinpowerster! You've just won a signed copy of Shadow of the Owl! So many exclamation points! I guess it's a Victor Borge kind of morning.
We are only 8 orders away from the next raffle, so let's get to 80 readers!
Have a wonderful Tuesday,
Amanda
My wonderful Machiners!
Tonight I have an important update for you which includes a call to action.
Earlier today we reached our 170th unique reader! We continue to hold 2nd place in the standings. 170 is an amazing number, and to be quite honest, we have exceeded what I originally thought possible in this contest. However, with 10 days remaining, it has become clear that it will not be enough. Perhaps not close to enough.
The standings remain incredibly close, and it's a testament to both the great talent in this contest and the great opportunity presented by Inkshares.
So, I must ask more of you. Having seen the tremendous support throughout this competition - including at least one new reader every day since I jumped in on December 2nd (which I’m particularly proud of) - I have great confidence that my friends, family, co-workers, associates, classmates, athletic team members, and the many supporters who I have no connection to other than through this story, will answer the call.
Most importantly, please know that I continue to work. Heartened by your support, I am not asking myself, how can I hold onto 2nd place? I am asking myself, how can we make a run over these 10 days to win. I didn't really expect to be here. And now that I am here, why not go for it? It may not be possible. We face a considerable deficit. But the push continues, and in 10 days we let the chips fall where they may.
So, if you haven’t yet pre-ordered, please jump in and join me. If you have pre-ordered, I need you to spread the word, and implore your nearest and dearest to jump in too.
Thanks so much!

Hello everyone!
As always, I have to start by thanking all of you for your support! After a brief scare over the weekend (I think I aged a decade over those few hours), we are back in 3rd place in the Sword and Laser contest!
I am extremely grateful to all of you, and so I have decided to emulate some of my fellow Inkshares authors and thank you with a gift card draw on January 15th. Specifically, I’ll be drawing 2 names from all of those who have pre-ordered my book to win a 50$ gift card each… More, if we finish in the top 3 at 3pm eastern time on January 15th- I’ll double it and draw another 2 names.
This contest is still anyone’s game, and we have 11 more days to hold on to one of the top 3 spots. Every single reader is hugely important and could easily make the difference. So I have to ask again, if you are following the project but haven’t hit that pre-order button, please do so. If you have, please ask your significant other, friends and parents to sign up!
I also wanted to share a screenshot of where my more recent supporters are located. I am amazed looking at this map! It’s hard to believe that my work is being read by people all over the world (and Spain and Hong Kong aren’t even showing anymore).
I am extremely thankful for all of your help and support. I can’t say it enough.
You guys are awesome!!
As a special thank you to those who know me in person but never saw me with hair... This is for you! From all the way back to when Highlander came out!
Hello everyone. Since crowdfunding did not work out too well for me, I have started to sell this book on Amazon. Take a look if you're interested:

Thank you for your support.
Kindest Regards,

Chris and I would REALLY appreciate your help in spreading the word via Facebook, Twitter, or any other social media you use!
