Lisa (tenaciousreader) | 301 comments First 5 nominations to get a second nomination will make it to our poll.

BUT, this time, we are looking for AMA authors. It still leaves plenty of choices/variety to vote on.

Another change, lets try to limit to one nomination/second per member so more people get an opportunity to participate in selecting what makes it to the poll.

Thanks!

Authors that have done an AMA (Ask Me Anything) on reddit. If you look on the right panel of /r/fantasy, you'll see a list of AMAs, with a link to more (because the list got too long to keep all of them on the right hand panel). Hope that helps.
