I was told a couple of weeks ago about a few special blog posts (by Robert Krausankas) that caught his attention. They were written by A.K. Taylor who goes by "Amanda" on the ELI Forums. Amanda has a number of posts on the ELI Forums earlier this year. However, we never knew she was a blogger and author also.
I finally got acquainted with her and invited her into the ELI fold. When you read her blog posts, you will know why. She is kick-ass, a fighter, writes amazingly well, and seems to love all of us here at ELI especially Oscar! I think she has the "right stuff" for ELI. She even gave one of Robert's favorite awards (the asshat award) to someone!
I am posting her links in the order she wrote them. Be forewarned, she covers a lot of ground and has become quite outspoken and passionate in her dislike of copyright extortionists. Just the type of person we love to have onboard with ELI.

She is enthusiastic in recommending and referring others to ELI. Clearly, I have a strong bias towards people willing to stand up and speak out on our behalf. For that, we are grateful.
