Hamilton C. Burger

Always a reader, I inhaled books during my days of extensive world travel. Before the Nook and Kindle, even before laptops became the norm, I would pack six or eight paperbacks for an extended trip.

I think the desire to write has always been in me. The first step is the hardest part of the journey. Since I took that step, I haven't looked back.

In my journey, I have met many authors whose support and friendship have taken some of the twists and turns out of the road.

I have been married 33 years. My wife and I have two beautiful daughters, Katie and Maddie.

Besides writing, I love to cook, travel, drive my Corvette. I have a dog and two cats...and a rat named Arlo.

Susie Dinneen

Before Susie Dinneen became a writer, she was a reader, and before that she was a dreamer. Now she’s all of those things. She catches stories that flit and float through the air, which is what she’s really doing when it looks like she’s daydreaming (although sometimes she’s just daydreaming).

She writes fast-paced adventures for young readers, about friendship, finding the truth, and treasure!

Her picture book, Nombulelo and the Moth, for 4 to 8 year olds, is about love and being brave, even when there are leopards in the forest.

She lives in Johannesburg, South Africa, with her husband, who’s a musician, and their cat, who pushes books off tables. One day she’ll have a library with a very comfy chair in it.

Jana Deleon

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Jana DeLeon was raised in southwest Louisiana among the bayous and gators. Her hometown is Carlyss, but you probably won't find it on a map. Her family owned a camp located on a bayou just off the Gulf of Mexico that you could only get there by boat. The most important feature was the rope hammock hanging in the shade on a huge deck that stretched out over the water where Jana spent many hours reading books.

Jana and her brother spent thousands of hours combing the bayous in a flat-bottom aluminum boat, studying the natural habitat of many birds, nutria and alligators. She would like you to know that no animals were injured during these "studies," but they kept makers of peroxide in business.

Kelly Hashway

Kelly Hashway fully admits to being one of the most accident-prone people on the planet, but that didn’t stop her from jumping out of an airplane at ten thousand feet one Halloween. Maybe it was growing up reading R.L. Stine’s Fear Street books that instilled a love of all things scary and a desire to live in a world filled with supernatural creatures, but she spends her days writing speculative fiction for young adults, middle graders, and young children. Kelly is also USA Today bestselling romance author Ashelyn Drake. When she’s not writing, Kelly works as an editor and also as Mom, which she believes is a job title that deserves to be capitalized.

Carmen Allen

Inspired by a multitude of mystery stories, the young teenage Carmen Allen had a dream of her own - to become a fiction writer for children. Her first attempt at writing, which by the way, included a riveting plot involving a missing banana and stolen diamond, was penned secretly in science class when she should have been listening to her teacher.

Fast forward many years and we see Carmen’s dream come true with the debut of her children’s book, ‘Molly’s Big Decision’. Carmen writes about children of character in a world of wonder.

Downtime for Carmen usually involves reading an action novel that champions a hero performing remarkably brave feats. Carmen also loves to bake, design or chat with a friend over a good cup of coffee. She lives on
