Shanna Johnting is currently in her fourth year in
the Creative Writing Program at Ball State University. She enjoys
writing fiction, mainly juvenile and fantasy, and spends 99.95%
of her free time re-reading her favorite books. The other .05% of
her time is spent checking various sites on the Internet, none of
which are necessarily conducive to her career and are probably rotting
her brain as we speak. She undertook this project because of her
interest in the environment, specifically the preservation of wildlife.
Shanna was a part of the Design Team, and wrote the
entries on Ann
Zwinger, Marguerite
Young, and Edwin
Way Teale. She also contributed text to the Restoration/Preservation
page, Water
and Air Pollution,
and also was part of the indexing team.
