James Lloyd Dulin

James is a nerd with a head full of stories and limited time to put them on the page.

He grew up in Grand Rapids, MI, spending an excessive amount of time at a local community theater where he developed his affinity for storytelling. This affinity grew into a deep admiration for language and spoken word poetry while studying mathematics and education at the University of Michigan. A few hundred mediocre poems and lackluster performances later, he decided his dream of writing a novel might not be as ridiculous as he once thought. He firmly believes that art—even silly books about magic, or maybe especially silly books about magic—has the ability to tell stories that sink beneath the surface.

K.R. Gangi

Stories gift us with the ability to live countless lives.

In these lives we are able to conjure magic, battle against political corruption, pilot a spaceship, fly on the backs of dragons, or patrol through the jungles on a foreign planet. They intrigue us, scare us, make us laugh, make us cry, make us cringe, and make us mad.

Being able to feel so much by simply reading words is the true power of a story, and I hope you find power in mine.

Adam Holcombe

Adam Holcombe daylights as a programmer and moonlights as an author. After spending years toying with the idea of writing, he decided to fully commit and work toward releasing his first novel.

Then Gam Gam got in the way, and his first novel became his first novella. The novel will come later.

When he’s not locking himself in a cold basement to type away, he can be found squishing his dog (but not too hard), squawking at his tortoise (but not too loudly), goofing off with his wife (in perfectly ordinary, non-weird ways), DMing for his friends (I even got to play as a character a couple times!), or the usual chilling at home. He is a lover of books, board games, video games, and swords.

Adam is currently working on more Gam Gam stories, as well

Payson R. Harris

Payson R. Harris (they/them) is Canada’s premier bigendered, autistic, queer, polyamorous writer—as far as they know. If you find another, please contact them so they can form a support group, then battle it out, Highlander-style.

When Payson isn’t writing, powerlifting, reading, gaming, baking, playing rugby, working, or spending time with their partners, they are desperately trying to find the time to sleep.

They reside in Ottawa, though their mind conveniently revolves around whatever their current obsession is. Hopefully, it is something healthy and productive, with fewer side effects than the time they needed to perfect their truffle-making skills and gained 5 kilos.

They are not as clever as they think, but hopefully are clever enough to

Along with one grumpy guinea pig, Saylor lives in North Carolina, where she finds great inspiration in the natural beauty and varied wildlife.
