Maya Deane

Maya Deane is writing for eternity. We imagine she would enjoy a nice reception in the present, but when we are all dust, her sinister spells will continue to unfold, guiding the motion of the stars inexorably down into the gravity wells of the supermassive black holes.

Since we are all currently alive, she would love to discuss the many things people should know about: the history of forks, cannabis-hotboxing Amazons in the archeological record, the top three most famous 18th century French trans women, experimental culinary archaeology (buy her a bunch of ancient bread loaf molds so she can make conical loafs, please), and the importance of good diplomatic relationships with cats.

Issy Waldrom

I'm a trans woman author from New Zealand, who likes to write queer fantasy/urban fantasy with queer casts and transfemme mc's, usually sapphic. I started writing and posting on the webnovel sites as a hobby in 2019, and it has grown into being a lot more than what I initially thought. Writing is now a passion, as I really want to be able to share the worlds and characters that I have created and love very much. They do, after all, mean a lot to me.

My biggest complete series is Soul Flames, high fantasy with dragons, their riders, and the journey to deal with the evil that has plagued the world. I also have a shifter romance series (Paths for short, featuring dragons! then wolves!, book 2 due out this year), a litrpg book (Esper, with a cut

H.E. Edgmon

H.E. Edgmon (he/they) is a high school and college dropout, a militant queer, and an author of books both irreverent and radicalizing. His stories will always center the perspective of Indigenous people, trans people, and survivors of trauma. At present, he’s probably biting off more than he can chew, emulating the aesthetic of Dwayne from The Lost Boys (1987), and living out the found family trope in Brooklyn. Online, he can most often be found on Twitter @heedgmon.
