Robbie MacNiven is an author and freelance journalist living in the Highlands of Scotland and currently enrolled as a student at the University of Edinburgh, studying History. His ambition is to become an author in much the same way that a 5 year old, when asked what he wants to be when he grows up, will say “a fireman” or “an astronaut.” He takes thin but wholesome comfort from the fact that the world will always need authors just as it will always need firemen and (presumably) astronauts.

In between studying (at worst only a passing discomfort) and writing Robbie follows politics, football, gaming and stalks magazines and newspapers online to see if they have a “submit” button. A number of his short fiction works can be found on Amazon, and his non-fiction in such publications as Retrospect, Skirmish and Military History Monthly. Should his writing career almost invariably fail he intends to flee to North America, buy himself a musket and a red coat, and join a re-enacting group. He generally prefers cats to dogs, and is 23 years old.

Dorothy Davies,

medium, writer, editor, all round crazy woman who loves history in all forms and all time periods. I love to drive, photograph and most of all - read! I live on the Isle of Wight, that most beautiful place off the English coast, where I can indulge in all my hobbies and occupation surrounded by beautiful countryside and inspiring views.

My books can be read as channeled direct from the spirit author or as a good piece of historical fiction. Either way, there are many of them to come! I hope you will enjoy them.

Patrick D'Orazio resides in southwestern Ohio with his wife, Michele, two children, Alexandra and Zachary, and three spastic dogs. A lifelong writer, he decided at middle age that attempting to get published might be a better idea than continuing to toss all those stories he's been scribbling down over the years into a filing cabinet, never to be seen again.

Over twenty-five of his short stories appear in various anthologies from a wide array of different small press publishers. He has dipped his toes into a variety of genres, including horror, science fiction, fantasy, erotica, bizarro, western, action-adventure, apocalyptic, and comedy.

He has also written a trilogy of apocalyptic novels dubbed "The Dark Trilogy" which were originally released by The Library of the Living Dead Press. The three books, "Comes the Dark," "Into the Dark," and "Beyond the Dark," were re-released with substantial new content by Permuted Press in 2013. Patrick continues to work on new novels and short stories. He also enjoys reviewing other speculative fiction works as well.
