Anthony O'Connor

I grew up in a small town in rural Australia. I studied mathematics, physics and computer science at the University of NSW in Sydney, Australia. I worked in IT and Software Engineering for many years, on a wide variety of systems and applications - mostly in Australia, but also in the United States and the UK.

I have always read very widely. The classics, modern SF, history, philosophy, mythology, AI, the singularity, mysticism, modern physics, logic, mathematics et al. My favorite writers are David Foster Wallace, Charles Bukowksi, Umberto Eco, Haruki Murakami, Neal Stephenson, William Gibson, Ian Banks, Vernor Vinge, and Peter Watts. I am interested in everything.

Lee Child

Lee Child was born October 29th, 1954 in Coventry, England, but spent his formative years in the nearby city of Birmingham. By coincidence he won a scholarship to the same high school that JRR Tolkien had attended. He went to law school in Sheffield, England, and after part-time work in the theater he joined Granada Television in Manchester for what turned out to be an eighteen-year career as a presentation director during British TV's "golden age." During his tenure his company made Brideshead Revisited, The Jewel in the Crown, Prime Suspect, and Cracker. But he was fired in 1995 at the age of 40 as a result of corporate restructuring.

Sean Costello

Sean Costello is the author of nine novels and numerous screenplays. His novel Here After has been optioned to film by David Hackl, director of Saw V. Depending on the whims of his muse, Costello's novels alternate between two distinct genres: Horror and Thriller. His horror novels have drawn comparisons to the works of Stephen King, and his thrillers to those of Elmore Leonard. In the real world he's an anesthesiologist, but, if asked, he'd tell you he'd much rather be writing.

In 2025, I will be publishing my 10th novel, Treacherous Hack, book #7 in my Mike Stoneman series.

My 2023 stand-alone novel, The Other Murder, won the GRAND PRIZE CLUE award as the best suspense/thriller of 2023 (Chanticleer International Book Awards)! The Other Murder is about a high-profile murder and the media frenzy it creates, and the other murder that nobody cares about. When two journalists team up to investigate the two murders, nothing is as it seems, and the most dangerous thing . . . is the truth.

Gabriel Blake

My preferred genre is psychological thrillers. I love all the plotting involved in creating a story with twists, turns, and jaw-dropping moments. Some would say my writing is aimed more toward horror-thriller.
I love to read books by Stephen King, Mark Billingham, James Patterson, Dean Koontz, Jeffery Deaver, Val McDermid, Peter James, and Teresa Driscoll to mention a few.
I also love movies like Seven, The Shining, Misery, LA Confidential, Silence of the Lambs and almost everything from John Hughes in the 80s and early 90s. I was a huge Brat Pack fan. Tv shows include the likes of Silent Witness, Endeavour, Line of Duty, Luther, Vera, Breaking Bad, You, Game of Thrones, True Detective, Fargo, and similar.

J.C. Moore

J.C. Moore has worked as a bartender, IT tech, touring musician, horse farm manager, and for one ill-fated season, ran a restaurant (the health inspector survived). His songs have turned up in TV and film, but these days his stories are more likely to end up in your hands than on your playlist.

He writes thrillers that dig into ordinary lives turned upside down. Secrets From a Serial Killer pulls readers into a small town hiding big secrets. Dead Man’s Payback follows Frank Mallory, a man who discovers that grief and vengeance can be two sides of the same coin.

Moore’s characters are rarely superheroes—they’re people with regrets, bad decisions, and just enough fight left to make things interesting.
