As a child, Zoe Tasia idolized Barbara Eden, star of I Dream of Jeannie, however, she would have ditched the astronaut and married Captain Kirk.

She explores her imagination as a writer, is married to an understanding Greek, has two grown sons, and a crazy cat that thinks it’s a dog. Zoe grew up in Oklahoma and lived over seven years in Scotland. Now she resides in the great state of Texas, where everything’s bigger and better, or so she’s told by the natives. When she’s not giving her make-believe friends full rein, she enjoys the opera, ballet, well-chilled champagne and reading, lots and lots of reading. Her first book

M.J. Evans

I am a graduate of Oregon State University. Upon graduation, I spent five years teaching at the middle school and high school levels. My writing, at that time, was limited to curriculum. That was not fun.

While raising my children, I coached their Odyssey of the Mind and Destination Imagination teams for seventeen years. I helped them write their own stories for the competitions. During this time, I also wrote two parent handbooks for the Salem, Oregon School district on sex education.

About fifteen years ago, I was able to combine my passion for horses with my love of writing. I researched and wrote two equestrian trail guide books for the Denver area. By “research” I mean that I spent every Friday riding my horse on a new trail, be it on t

J.C. Gemmell

With scientist parents and steady exposure to the original Star Trek and Asimov’s boundless imagination, J.C. Gemmell was always surrounded by sci-fi stories. Despite the lure of fantasy sagas—Eddings, Tolkien and then Donaldson—a battered copy of Logan’s Run made him realise speculative futures were where the best stories lived.

Fast-forward a couple of decades, and he was deep in the world of computer science, riding the wave of technology before it was cool (or at least before it ruled the world). Eventually, he bought a home computer (for fun) and, instead of doing anything sensible with it, unleashed years of pent-up creativity.

Now, J.C. Gemmell crafts rich, unsettling visions of the future, blending intricate plots, diverse characters
