Ben Schenkman likes many things in life: his 20-pound Maine coon cat, his family, his coffee, and his eclectic hobbies—not necessarily in that order.
Ben also likes to play devil’s advocate in his urban fantasy books by exploring the gray areas of good and evil with questions like, “Does the end really justify the means? Or is it all simply black and white?” Ben leaves these questions lingering in the ether to challenge readers’ conventional thinking and delve into the complexities of moral dilemmas.
As a native of Connecticut, Ben draws inspiration from his upbringing and college years in New Haven, where his novels take place. When he wants to escape being a writer, he’s a massive foodie who goes on gastronomic adventures, an overachiever who collects degrees in Theater, Nuclear Engineering, and an MBA, or the manager/performer of the fire dance troupe, HVBRIS—you know, the basics. No big deal.
Want to know more about his work, or talk about coffee and cats? He loves hearing from readers!

From Sci-fi Author M. A. (Max) Wall: I have been affiliated with the military for most of my life. I curse, I can be abrupt, and I save flowery wording for pissed off people and pretty metaphors. I have no problem with people poking holes in the science of a speculative fiction story, and I’m a scientist that has spent most of my career *asking* people to point out the flaws in my work. That being said, I do not look forward to the added trolls upsetting people that just want to enjoy a good book, but they’re always around.

K.T. Anglehart has always known she wanted to tell stories. Much of her writing inspiration stems from Scottish and Irish folklore, as illustrated in her debut young adult urban fantasy novel, The Wise One, and its sequel The Twin Flame, the first two installments in The Scottish Scrolls series.

Anglehart believes that a great book is one that incites you to change in some way. She hopes her readers will learn to find magic all around them, connect with nature, form lasting friendships, and keep following their excitement.

A devoted academic and speaker of three languages, she holds a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism; a graduate certificate in Scriptwriting; and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing.

When she’s not writing, diving into magical reads or studying folklore, Anglehart loves hiking, exploring cities and their local myth (of course), antiquing, amateur painting, and Netflixing with her high-school-sweetheart-turned-husband, Andy. They live in Toronto with their three pets: Nessie, a mysterious mutt rescued from Puerto Rico, and Onyx and Sterling, their troublemaking bunnies.

From an early age, in the small town of Spanish Fort, Alabama, Brian delighted in conjuring fantastical worlds and unique characters. Alone in his room, he imagined them in most dire of situations, overcoming impossible odds, and snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. It was fun and gave a hyperactive child a way to occupy his mind constructively, rather than wreak havoc and get into trouble. 

By the time Brian reached his teens, he was doing his level best to give his inner voice a real world platform for expression. Though it was not likely that anyone else would take time to read the fruits of his labors, he didn't care. The simple act of creation was where he derived his pleasure. 

As an adult, other interests dominated his life. He continued writing, but without hopes of turning it into a career, instead focused on the dream of being a rock star. As it turned out, he wasn't cut from the right cloth and was never able to realize his ambitions.

 
It was in his late thirties, now with a wife and young son, his love of writing circled back into his life. And with the encouragement of those who love him, and with no small amount of inspiration of his boy, he finally found his purpose. It was in front of him the entire time. But he just didn't see it. 

Many worlds, thousands of characters and more than a dozen novels later, he can look back at the events leading him to this point with a sense of humor. The various misadventures and terrible choices had become sources of inspiration, whereas before they had been thorns of regret - memories he would use to malign himself in those dark moments of reflection.

In his day job, Lance Robinson is an environmental social scientist who often works closely with mobile peoples. He is a sporadic nomad himself, having lived variously in countries such as Ghana, the Gambia, Colombia, and Kenya. He began writing speculative fiction as a child, and by his early twenties his stories began appearing in small press magazines. In the early 1990s, he even entered the Writers of the Future Contest two or three times. Eventually, though, his life filled up with other things and he set creative writing aside.

Recently, however, when he returned home to Canada, he decided it was also time to come back home to writing. Since then, his stories have often explored how our relationship with the natural world is intertwined with our spiritual journeys—as individuals, as communities, and as a collective humanity. Lance is also an avid astronomy and space-travel nut, and he found the germ of his story “Five Days Until Sunset” at the intersection of pondering the spiritual search that never ends and wondering what life might be like on a tidally locked, “eyeball” planet. The story also asks what it means to live in harmony with a world that is ready to kill you, and what it means to have faith in the face of inconvenient truths. Lance and his two children currently make their home in Robinson-Superior Treaty territory on the traditional land of the Anishnaabeg peoples and Fort William First Nation in the City of Thunder Bay, Ontario.

Our exodus family awoke on the new world—a paradise inexplicably teeming with Earth life, the Promise fulfilled. But 154 of us are missing. . . .—“Five Days Until Sunset” by Lance Robinson

Laurel 'Loz' Cadman was born and raised in Staffordshire, United Kingdom. She is an aspiring author who has been writing fiction since she was young. She went on hiatus after failing her GCSE English thus losing her confidence, thinking she will never become a published author, that is until the creative spark came back in 2021. Loz doesn't let anything stand in her way from achieving her dreams and always wants to prove to the world that people on the autism spectrum are capable with living independent and are able to achieve big!

Reality bending fiction is what Loz loves to write about as she has always admire stories that defy reality and allow the imagination to run free. She has always found this to be her interest in all medias, especially in video games.

Her debut novel 'Midnight Devotion' was written after attending a gig in Birmingham late October 2021 and she immediately became inspired to write again when she rediscovered her passion for fiction. She felt as though she would have full control of its content and the way it is being presented if she were to self-publish rather than going traditionally.

Her love for rock and metal, along with ambient post rock music play a huge influence for her writing, especially for her vampire punk band novel series! Music is her biggest influence for creativity as she can emotionally connect to the music she listen to, whether it's music from video games, movies and TV, a playlist compiled by Spotify towards a certain genre, or connecting songs and albums to her memories.

When she isn't writing, Loz would either be working out at the gym, playing guitar, playing video games, catching up on the wrestling, reading, gardening, or listening to music and a variety of podcasts.

Loz currently resides in Staffordshire with her partner, her two house bunnies, and his two guinea pigs!

From Sebastien... When I was sixteen, I was off on an island, camping by myself, and ended up having to wait about six hours for a ferry. While sitting on the pier, I read a book titled Bard by Keith Taylor filled with music, adventure, and swordplay. I was hooked. Unfortunately, it turns out there’s no such job as “bard” these days, so I’ve made do with a string of strange vocations, all of which brought me right back to books, only now I get to write them for a living!

From Hollis... Growing up a Navy brat gave me an extreme case of wanderlust and paved the way to becoming certifiably obsessed with ancient cultures, travel, and writing. Living abroad as a child helped to foster a sense of fun and wonderment at the world around me. Suffice to say that I loved my childhood so much so, that perhaps I never really grew up in my own head. Basically, you should never stop playing in life. The colors are much brighter that way!

My Father retired from the Navy when I was eleven, and I met Ashley, my very best friend and more of a sister, actually. One of the many activities we bonded over in our mutual creative nerdiness was playing Dungeons & Dragons. Over twenty five years later, we are still super geeks creating wonderful worlds and characters in between our adult lives. One of our adventures was the inspiration for my first novel, To Save a World, for which I am presently writing a sequel.
