Ben Gelinas

I am an editor and writer currently based in Edmonton, a sprawling provincial capital in the frigid wastes of the Canadian prairies.

For a handful of years, I worked as a crime reporter here. During my time at the Edmonton Journal, I covered hostage takings, stage collapses, infanticides, house explosions, and more homicides than most people have birthdays. In between, I dabbled in arts writing, reviewing concerts and interviewing some of the world’s most famous celebrities, including Peter Wunstorf, Bobcat Goldtwait and my mom.

Currently, I somehow get paid money to be a story editor on the Dragon Age team at BioWare, a triple-A video game studio founded by medical doctors.

Robert Kroese

Robert Kroese's sense of irony was honed growing up in Grand Rapids, Michigan - home of the Amway Corporation and the Gerald R. Ford Museum, and the first city in the United States to fluoridate its water supply. In second grade, he wrote his first novel, the saga of Captain Bill and his spaceship Thee Eagle. This turned out to be the high point of his academic career. After barely graduating from Calvin College in 1992 with a philosophy degree, he was fired from a variety of jobs before moving to California, where he stumbled into software development. As this job required neither punctuality nor a sense of direction, he excelled at it. In 2009, he called upon his extensive knowledge of useless information and love of explosions to write h
