Mic Shannon is an American author, musician, actor, and entrepreneur. He is the author of Humankind, the first in a Sci-Fi trilogy of introspective novels on unity and morality within humanity.  A precursory novel was first written when Mic was only ten years old, but never published.  Then, in less than a year, he wrote the entire manuscript for Humankind from scratch and incorporated his own publishing company to release the project.
