Thomas R. Weaver
I write stories about tomorrow to help make sense of today. Artificial Wisdom, my debut, was published as an indie and has recently been picked up by Penguin Random House. It will be re-released with some extra content by Del Rey in the US, and Bantam in the UK/Commonwealth, in 2025, with the sequel coming 2026.
Aside from writing, I’m a tech entrepreneur. My last startup was acquired by Just Eat Takeaway; my new one is still in stealth but backed by a major Silicon Valley tech accelerator. I also invest in multiple early-stage startups.
Despite all that, I never thought I’d use my degree in Computer Science. I left university to run the UK branch of one of the world’s largest student organisations before spending many years working on and bu

So, a little bit about me! I was born in London, but grew up Jamaica, then Zambia, and dimensions of this international upbringing feature in my writing. As a child I was encouraged to write and wanted to nurture an early talent and become a journalist.
I never did; instead, I studied law, then qualified as an accountant and worked for twenty years in the City. I'm not sure I ever really enjoyed that job. Now freed from the shackles of the day job, I have reverted to my childhood passion and I love my new career.

Elizabeth Hendrick
EXODAI is the first memoir ELIZABETH HENDRICK has published. She was compelled to write about her struggles with her sexuality and narrate the story of how she eventually learnt to love herself, placing particular emphasis on her S&M relationship with a Japanese dominatrix. Elizabeth believes her story will be of value not just to LGBTQ+ and BDSM communities, but to all individuals who have been ostracised during their adolescence and whose lack of self-love is sabotaging their adult lives. It’s also an intriguing peek behind the curtain of Tokyo’s exotic and sometimes shocking BDSM underworld.
