V.M. Waitt
V.M Waitt discovered her love for writing as a child, spending many hours writing countless stories about horses, her first love, some of which were published in an equine magazine. Her creative side fostered in college as a film major, but it was writing that drove her to further explore the plots in her head. Before braving the world of original fiction, she wrote fan fiction and found her niche writing erotic m/m stories containing conflict, angst, flawed characters, difficult topics, and challenging situations, often provoking emotional responses from her readers.

Jamie Fessenden
Jamie Fessenden set out to be a writer in junior high school. He published a couple short pieces in his high school's literary magazine and had another story place in the top 100 in a national contest, but it wasn't until he met his partner, Erich, almost twenty years later, that he began writing again in earnest. With Erich alternately inspiring and goading him, Jamie wrote several screenplays and directed a few of them as micro-budget independent films. He then began writing novels and published his first novella in 2010.

Amelia C. Gormley
Amelia C. Gormley published her first short story in the school newspaper in the 4th grade, and since then has suffered the persistent delusion that enabling other people to hear the voices in her head might be a worthwhile endeavor.

Wade Kelly
Wade Kelly lives and writes in conservative, small-town America on the east coast where it’s not easy to live free and open in one's beliefs. Wade writes passionately about controversial issues and strives to make a difference by making people think. Wade does not have a background in writing or philosophy, but still draws from personal experience to ponder contentious subjects on paper. There is a lot of pain in the world and people need hope. When not writing, she is thinking about writing, and more than likely scribbling ideas on sticky notes in the car while playing "taxi driver" for her three children. She likes snakes, can’t spell, and has a tendency to make people cry.

His “brand” is anything from historicals, mysteries, thrillers, and contemporaries, all with individualistic themes.
