W. Michael Farmer

I live and write in Smithfield, Isle of Wight County, Virginia. Living for nearly fifteen years in Las Cruces, New Mexico, I was immersed in the region's rich history, living in its culture, exploring its deserts, mountains, and ranges and learning much of the rich story life of the southwest. I'm a physicist by training, and I have a couple of books on remote sensing through the atmosphere (the Atmospheric Filter)that were published nearly fifteen years ago and are still in use today. I began writing fiction in 2002 in an attempt to get at the truth behind one of the great mysteries of the southwest - the Fountain murders - I learned while living in Las Cruces. The result was my first novel, Hombrecito's War, which won a Western Writers of

Wilder Page

Wilder Page loves science fiction, cyberpunk, dystopian, and post-apocalyptic worlds. Especially those with stories where the personal stakes are high, and the costs of failure are very real. But he also believes in the triumph of the human spirit, and whether the future will be grim or bright, well… that’s a choice each of us has to make for ourselves. When Wilder’s not writing or daydreaming he spends the rest of his time running, traveling with his wife and best friend, or playing video games with his two amazing little kiddos!

Elizabeth Jurado

Elizabeth Jurado was born and raised in the border city of El Paso, Texas. Living in El Paso, with the Rio Grande River just down the street from her childhood home, allowed her to experience life in a unique way. As a child, Elizabeth stood on the embankments of the river that separated two countries and watched children from Mexico playing on their side of the river. Throughout her life the two cultures, the American and Mexican, merged into one. Elizabeth saw it in the people around her, in the food, in the language, and in the music. She saw it in the schools she attended as a child and later as a teacher. It was those experiences that inspired her to write Saygar the Magnificent.

Elizabeth worked as a substitute teacher and a first gra
