A.R. Knight

I spin stories in a frosty house in Madison, WI, primarily owned by a pair of cats. After getting sucked into the working grind in the economic crash of the 2008, I found myself spending boring meetings soaring through space and going on grand adventures.

Eventually, spending time with podcasting, screenplays, short stories and other novels, I found a story I could fall into and a cast of characters both entertaining and full of heart. That story became Wild Nines, and eventually became a trilogy.

I've got a basket, maybe even a barrel of ideas for more stories coming after these, so if you'd like to see what I'm scribing, feel free to visit me at adamrknight.com or sign up for my newsletter at http://bit.ly/bkbnewswn.

He first started reading for fun as an adult, having tried his hardest to avoid anything resembling academia growing up, and at that point the world became a far bigger place. He has been reading, at least one book at a time, ever since.

His debut works, the After It Happened series, (Survival, Humanity, Society) were published in April 2016 followed by Hope (July 2016) and Sanctuary (December 2016). The first part of the series concluded with the release of Rebellion

Matthew Kim

Like so many young people these days, I loved reading and books as a child. However, it dropped off suddenly in my high school and university years. In my early twenties I picked up an old book series I'd never finished and I was hooked like nothing else.

A love of reading gave birth to a love of writing, and here I am.

The Fall of The Four, a RimWorld inspired science fiction odyssey; and The Shadow Over Yohkawn, a standalone hard science fiction are in the bag, and I'm working on the next one.

All the while, the list of what I want to write next keeps getting longer.

Stay tuned for more.
