Katina French is a speculative fiction author from southern Indiana. An award-winning copywriter, she's been writing professionally for over 20 years. She has been published in Daily Science Fiction, as well as small presses including Echelon Press, Line By Lion and Per Bastet Publications.

Her steampunk Clockwork Republic series includes retellings of "Snow White," "The Snow Queen," and "Beauty & the Beast." The Belle Starr Chronicles is an old-fashioned space opera serial, featuring a mentally-unhinged smuggler and her sentient ship.

Ms. French writes fast-paced, humor-laced stories of high adventure and romance. She's married to her high school sweetheart, who proposed at a cast party for M*A*S*H (Kat played "Hot Lips"). They live in a Grey Cottage with their kids and a disabled Siamese cat who thinks she's a ninja.

Herika R. Raymer is a Bookwright who wants to do each story right! She grew up consuming books - first eating them and later reading them. Reading was better, but writing was fun! A writer of mixed genre - science-fiction, thriller, horror, fantasy (dark and/or rural), and even some humor (yes it can be dark) - her style leans towards thriller/horror. No gore, she explores either monster-based or psychological horror. No explicit sex, she claims such scenes make her blush. Still, her characters are passionate and engaging enough to win short story competitions/awards. Intrigued? Read a story and/or visit online!

For as long as I can remember, I've loved telling and soaking up stories. At the age of six, I was told somebody got paid for writing books and movies and television shows; I abandoned my previous ambition (beachcomber), and became a writer.

I've had stories in anthologies, on-line and print publications, including Marion Zimmer Bradley's Sword & Sorceress anthologies, on coffee cans, and the wall of an Indian restaurant in Louisville, Kentucky.

I'm one-third of Per Bastet Publications, a small publishing house based in southern Indiana.

Small town life agrees with me. I like the interconnectedness of everything and everybody. I try to remember, in my books and stories, that no one exists in isolation, but in a web of connections.

Most of my work is fantasy, science fiction and/or mystery, though I write anything else that suits the story and character.

S.H. Roddey writes speculative fiction. She is also a voracious reader, wanna-be chef, amateur gamer, and owner of a local handcrafted market. She lives in the Piedmont area of South Carolina with a house full of humans and cats and spends entirely too much time yelling at her sewing machine.

Chantal Noordeloos lives in the Netherlands, where she spends her time with her wacky, supportive husband, and outrageously cunning daughter, who is growing up to be a supervillain. When she is not busy exploring interesting new realities, or arguing with characters (aka writing), she likes to dabble in drawing.

In 1999 she graduated from the Norwich School of Art and Design, where she focused mostly on creative writing.

There are many genres that Chantal likes to explore in her writing. Currently Sci-fi Steampunk is one of her favourites, but her 'go to' genre will always be horror. "It helps being scared of everything; that gives me plenty of inspiration," she says.

Chantal likes to write for all ages, and storytelling is the element of writing that she enjoys most. "Writing should be an escape from everyday life, and I like to provide people with new places to escape to, and new people to meet."

R.J. resides with his family in Heartland Crossing, Indiana. He drinks regularly from a Little Mermaid coffee mug and is man enough to admit it. rjsullivanfiction.com/
