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.

Jennifer Cano

As a kid, Jen lived coast to coast across the United States (in California, Oklahoma, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Utah) and also spent a year in Japan. For an introverted kid, all the moves meant difficulties making friends at school until Junior High. The natural gift of those years was elaborate day dreaming.

Jen has a snooty degree in English Literature and considers Agatha Christie the Queen of all things good in mystery. Her other favorite genres to read are fantasy and science fiction--anything that pushes reality aside and introduces her to worlds that only live in the imagination of another.

She lives in Utah with her husband and three children. She absolutely abhors making crafts, except once a year at Christmas time, when she takes

Sally Gould

Sally loved books from a young age, but never considered writing them. While she was busy getting up to the mischief that teenagers get up to, she forgot about books all together. Then total insanity took hold and she became a corporate lawyer. Fortunately, she had two sons and they inspired her to write stories for children. Of course, her oldest son is responsible, logical, studious, considerate, grateful and even makes his bed. The youngest one is only interested in having fun – lots of it. And, except for his teachers, he makes everyone laugh. Their antics have inspired many of Sally’s stories. Sally lives in Melbourne, Australia with her family and two dogs – Pebbles, who is sensible, and Jade, who just wants to have fun.

Karen Cossey

As a child, I could usually be found with a book in my hands and a story streaming through my mind. I'd tell you I loved 'Famous Five' and 'Trixie Belden' but that would show my age.

Anyway, after my pet dinosaur, oops I mean dog, showed no interest in moving from the country to the city with me, I ventured forth into the big wide university world by myself, where I had many adventures and quite a few cups of hot chocolate (sorry to confess I don't drink coffee. Please don't hold it against me. I have other vices. You should see how many empty milk bottles I put back in the fridge).

Eventually I found someone to love and cherish who was a real person (sorry Darcy), and we did some roaming of the world after we were married, and also a bit mor
