A bit of groveling

Hello there!

Erin here! I'm writing today to do a bit of groveling. You see, I'm trying to get my first book "Moonlight & the Magician" published using Inkshares. As you may know, Inkshares is a crowdfunding site (like Kickstarter or Indiegogo but exclusively for books) that helps authors gather preorders for their books and will publish the work if you reach a certain goal (in my case, 833 or more preorders for an ebook deal, and 1,083 for a paperback deal). If I can reach my goal, I will receive a publishing contract including professional editing, marketing, and distribution. This would truly be a dream come true for me!
I've also entered into a contest sponsored by The Nerdist which ends on September 30th (a few days after my birthday, and shortly before I should be giving birth to my first child)! The contest works like this - the more people that preorder my book, the higher the chance of me being published in a special collection even if I don't hit my base goal of 833 preorders!  
Even if I don't win the contest, every preorder counts towards my overall goal. If you would do me the kindness of contributing to the project I would really appreciate it! Consider it a birthday present. ;) 
Additionally, just for signing up for an Inkshares account you will get $5.00 in site credit to spend! That means you can help me out with my dream for less than $5! (If you're worried, like Kickstarter, you are only charged if the project is successful). And if you can't contribute, it would help me out immensely if you could share the project on your favorite social media or just with a friend or two!
You can back the project or just read more about it here:

Thank you for your support!
Sincerely, 
Erin Moore
