Friends, Authors, Artists

Sarah DiMento
Artist, webcomic author, mockumentary producer, and frequent partner in crime. Sarah is the mastermind behind Captain Electric: From Mascot to Massacre, and the only person ever to send me ‘Ghoultide Wishes from Evil Santa and Mrs. Claws’.

Sherwood Smith
A fine YA fantasy author, perceptive critic, and wonderful friend, Sherwood is the author of the epic Inda and its forthcoming sequel, The Fox. You’ll find fascinating discussion of the fantasy field, the writing trade, and much else on her LiveJournal blog, Oached Pish.

Eric Vondran
Eric is the store manager for Virgin Books & Music at Calgary International Airport. In his spare time he designs book jackets, records mashups and mixes, and sells artwork through his website, Kawphy.ca. Of course Eric is a heretic, as ‘kauphy’ should be spelt with a U, but we must learn to forgive even the most grievous of sins.

John C. Wright
According to Publishers Weekly, John is ‘this fledgling century’s most important new SF talent’. He is also a Christian, a certified curmudgeon, and a fearless slayer of humbug. And he has a pretty lively LJ blog of his own.
