Introductions are in order as we have a new panelist, Amber Biesecker is an author, editor, actress, and activist with a background in game design and criminal investigations. Passionate but rational, she has a reputation for devastatingly thorough research and creative cursing. She drinks and she knows things. And rumor has it she is not to be fed after midnight.

Amber gets to tell us a couple things about herself and why on earth she would want to podcast.

• Wyrmwood Publishing on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/wyrmwoodpublishing/
• Lana Hart (my pen name) on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/writerlanahart/
• Lana Hart on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/author/lanahart
• Genre: Paranormal Romance and Horror

In fact it might be a good idea to round robin and reintroduce ourselves.

And then… a recap of the debate.
