M.J. Gallagher
Hey, I'm Maurice (Mo), and come from the town of Cumbernauld, Scotland. I'm a mathematics and economics graduate who got lucky and stumbled into a job as a travel writer for New Zealand-based tourism company, Citywalksz Ltd.
As an author, I am perhaps best known for my unofficial novelisation of the best-selling videogame 'Final Fantasy VII', but 'Axtelera Ray' is my first original venture alongside the project creator, Alroy Jovi.
I've been an avid fan of reading since I was a kid, and have grown to love popular fantasy sagas such as 'A Song of Ice and Fire', 'Lord of the Rings', 'Harry Potter' and 'His Dark Materials', as well as other fiction epics like the 'Millennium' trilogy or 'Jurassic Park'. I would currently count George R.R. Martin

A little about me...
I enjoy authors such as Jeff Vandermeer, Blake Crouch, and P G Wodehouse.
My favourite films are Alien and The Fifth Element.
I live with my wife and daughter and enjoy retro computer games, pretty much all science fiction movies, and if I ever get the opportunity I love to rock climb. I also play bass most weeks in a rocking wedding band. -

Ransom Riggs
Hi, I'm Ransom, and I like to tell stories. Sometimes I tell them with words, sometimes with pictures, often with both. I grew up on a farm on the Eastern shore of Maryland and also in a little house by the beach in Englewood, Florida where I got very tan and swam every day until I became half fish. I started writing stories when I was young, on an old typewriter that jammed and longhand on legal pads. When I was a little older I got a camera for Christmas and became obsessed with photography, and when I was a little older still my friends and I came into possession of a half-broken video camera and began to make our own movies, starring ourselves, using our bedrooms and backyards for sets. I have loved writing stories and taking photograph
