Skyla Dawn Cameron
Bitchstress Dreamkiller
Award-winning author Skyla Dawn Cameron has been writing approximately forever.
Her early storytelling days were spent acting out strange horror/fairy tales with the help of her many dolls, and little has changed except that she now keeps those stories on paper. She signed her first book contract at age twenty-one for River, a unique werewolf tale, which was released to critical and reader praise alike and won her the 2007 EPPIE Award for Best Fantasy. She now has multiple series on the go to keep her busy, which is great for her attention deficit disorder.
Skyla is a fifth generation crazy cat lady who lives in southern Ontario, where she dabbles in art, is an avid gamer, and watches Buffy reruns. If she ever becomes a grownup, she wants to run her own pub, as well as become world dictator. You can visit her on the web at www.skyladawncameron.com. When she’s not writing or being glared at by cats, she’s probably on Twitter. You should ping @skyladawn and tell her to get back to work.
Dina James
Gothic Goddess
It really isn't any wonder to her Momma that Dina has loved chronicling the paranormal - writing about vampires, werewolves, ghosts, demons and various other creatures that you don't want to meet in a dark alley - since junior high school. Her mother still has Dina’s first book - a self-published story done in crayon in the second grade about a unicorn - somewhere in a drawer, which will no doubt be used as a form of blackmail when Dina’s first novel comes out. (Probably to force Dina to edit all the “bad words” out of her manuscript, because her Momma raised her to know better.)
Dina has a novel or ten on her hard drive. Er…on the horizon. She lives in exile on the Oregon Coast with her husband, five cats (she can explain) and a dog. She is currently hard at work writing the next novel in a developing Young Adult series.
Adrienne Jones
Diabolical Behavior Dictator
Adrienne Jones is the author of many strange and delicious books like Brine, Gypsies Stole my Tequila and The Hoax, with more scheduled releases coming down the pipe.
When not reading, writing or watching science fiction, she prefers to be outdoors, especially in the woods, hiking and pondering the weirdness of the universe.
Skye Forbes
Lieutenant Quillstabber
Skye became the black sheep of her university's literature department when she announced that what she really wanted to do for her senior thesis, instead of writing a thought-provoking essay on the deeper meanings of James Joyce, was to write a romance novel. They gave in, however, and the rest is history. As a result, Skye learned more than she ever thought possible about the inner workings of the publishing industry and off and on, given her schedule, pursued publication of both her senior thesis and other novels she's written along the way.
Skye has many names and almost as many personalities to go with them. As Melinda Skye, she writes Romantic Suspense. As Skye Forbes, she writes Urban Fantasy. In her real life, under yet another different name, Skye is a lawyer. And yes, if you ask nicely, she might help keep you out of jail. Or put you in it. It depends on her mood.
Skye lives in Portland, Oregon, with her husband and menagerie of animals.
Seleste deLaney
Blasphemous Dispensator of Expenditures
As Seleste deLaney, she’s published urban fantasy, steampunk, paranormal romance, and even a contemporary romance. The sex and death thing also bled into her other persona and, as Julie Particka, she writes young adult urban fantasy as well… and mobsters… and post-apocalyptic… and…
Using the scheming powers she learned from her villains—and heroes—she convinced Carina Press, Decadent Publishing, Evernight Publishing, and 1 Place for Romance to publish her devilish tales.
Julie Butcher
Senior Pie Coordinator & Clubhouse Keeper
Julie Butcher lives with her husband and six children on the fringes of Utter Chaos. The sister of #1 New York Times bestselling author Jim Butcher, who she adores, she writes because her awesome sister-in-law, author Shannon K Butcher said it was time to learn, and Julie doesn’t argue with women who own guns. Her super-powers involve sugar and ninjas and will be revealed on a need-to-know basis.
Kerry Schafer
Dragon Mistress
Kerry Schafer is licensed both as a Mental Health Professional and an RN, and spends most of her daylight hours helping people--usually even with a smile. In books, she gets to blow stuff up, usually with something more interesting than a bomb. Dragons are good; exploding giant slime toads are even better. She has published two novels with Ace Books: BETWEEN, which was released in January 2013, and WAKEWORLD, slated to hit stores in January 2014. She is also the author of THE DREAM WARS novellas, available where electronic books are sold. Kerry and her Viking live in Colville, Washington, in a little house surrounded by rocks, trees, and gangs of deer and wild turkeys. (And no, she does not shoot either deer or turkeys, except occasionally with a camera.)

Frances Pauli (Associate Evil)
Releaser of the Hellhounds
Frances Pauli writes speculative fiction, usually with touches of humor or romance, which means, of course, that she has trouble choosing sides.
She's always been a rabid fan of things outside the box, odd, weird or unusual, and that trend follows through to her tales which feature aliens, fairies, and even, on occasion, an assortment of humans. Frances eats far too much chocolate, drinks far too little wine and does her best to get the stories out and on paper before they drive her completely insane. More information on her work and upcoming releases can be found on her website: http://francespauli.com
