   Ang Harris was born and raised in the Midwest . She started reading at age three, was making up stories before kindergarten, and was writing them down by age eight. She ventured into journalism in high school, but creative writing was her passion, and she went on to major in English at college. She’s been published in Mountie Press, Tails (the magazine of the Missouri Humane Society), Yahoo!, and Bella Online, among others.
    Ang lives in Missouri with her husband and two college-aged kids. She enjoys photography, cappuchino, meditation, science fiction and fantasy, and power walking. When she can push two very spoiled brown tabby cats off the keyboard, she works on a novel. She describes herself as an environmentalist, a beginning runner, and a snark, and writes about those subjects (and others!) at her blog: www.angiloo.blogspot.com.

   Alisha Robinson is 28-years-old and married. She lives in a small town north of Stratford, Ontario, Canada.

She tends to stick to fantasy novels, both for reading and writing but she enjoys any type as long as it can hold her attention. In University (and life) she has studied Anthropology, history and ancient civilizations so she also enjoys anything that deals with mythologies or history, though she prefers if the story lines are (mostly) accurate.

 She enjoys and partakes in all kinds of art including: sketching, digital, painting, writing novels and poetry, sculpting and anything else I can try.

 Marie Harbon is a UK based science fiction/fantasy writer who has always loved a great book or film. She is the creator of the ‘Seven Point Eight’ series and sometimes masquerades as a teacher, sports coach and craftswoman. Aside from the characters that live in her head, she shares her home with her son, three cockatiels, a few guitars and reams of fabric.
Marie’s taste is quite eclectic – science fiction, urban/contemporary fantasy, (no vampires or werewolves though) paranormal, metaphysical, spirituality, thrillers, crime, some women’s fiction, humour, YA and some non-fiction – spirituality, self-help, inspirational, popular science, ancient wisdom, conspiracy, political, supernatural. Erotica accepted. I look for a generally intelligent read and original concepts.

She writes in Hindi and English; Likes to observe people, relationships nature etc. and is aspiring to become an author.  She is an active blogger – poet.  She recently started exploring other forms of writing, her only indulgences are reading apart from writing.

Writing has been a hobby since childhood but that’s where it remained until now when she realized it is her passion. It gives satisfaction and makes her feel complete. She likes to write about anything that touches her life and heart. She says it is something to ponder about.

She is a learner on life’s path and believes that each day and each moment has a hidden message and something new to be learned.

‘This is what my learning Teaches,’ the Aquarian said, ‘To absorb life through the pores for the life around you is dead.’ She finds this verse true to her thinking. The purpose is anyway to be real her. Odd Aquarians find true meaning in humanity’s new beginning- Not to judge our sisters and brothers as we wake up to love one another.
