With the number of edited anthologies, novels, RPG books, and nonfiction books under her belt, Jennifer is often considered a Renaissance woman, but she prefers to be known as a wordslinger and optimist.

Read more about her at www.jenniferbrozek.com or follow her on Twitter: @JenniferBrozek.

  S. D. PERRY (“Skeld’s Keep”) writes novelizations and tie-ins for love and money; she has worked in the shared universes of Star Trek, Resident Evil, and Aliens, among others, and in her spare time reads and writes horror. S. D. lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband and two children.

  MIRA GRANT (“Blood And Sand”) lives and writes in the Pacific Northwest, where her home overlooks a large swamp filled with frogs. Truly the best of all possible worlds. When not writing as herself, Mira writes under the name Seanan McGuire, and releases a truly daunting number of books and stories during the average year. She regularly claims to be the vanguard of an invading race of alien plant people; any time spent with her will make this surprisingly credible. Mira shares her home with two enormous blue cats, a lizard, some very odd bugs, and a daunting number of books about dead things. She loves horrible diseases, and is not always a good dinner companion. Keep up with Mira at www.seananmcguire.com, or on Twitter at @seananmcguire. Mira would very much like to show you what lurks behind the corn, but for some reason, the editors won’t let her.
