About our Guest: I’ve been writing SF and fantasy since the 1980s, with two novels and over 50 short stories in places including Asimov’s, Fantasy and Science Fiction, Galaxy, and Analog. I recently received word that my third novel, The Cadaver Princess, will be published by Experimenter Publishing, part of Amazing Stories. The novel is set in London in 1831. Bodysnatching is common, as people sell them to anatomists at medical schools for teaching purposes. The latest shows up at one Dr. Sheppard, and sits up and talks, claiming to be the heir to the throne, Princess Victoria. Sheppard’s assistant, a young Senegalese man – captured by slavers and freed – is Pablo Mansong, who helps Victoria get her bearings and discovers the plot to replace her and have her rule as a puppet. But there are dark forces, ancient wizards, demons, and music that can drive people mad, all of which require Pablo to work to thwart them. I’ve been writing hidden historical fantasies, where the fantastic elements do not contradict the actual historical facts. It’s been something I’ve been writing for several years. Outside of writing, I’ve been involved in SF conventions. I’ve done programming for Albacon and will be the con chair for this year’s event. I’ve also run it for Astronomicon, and for last year’s Buffalo NASFiC. Quite a few years ago, I was treasurer of SFWA for three years. I also blog about movies and other forms of entertainment at greatbutforgotten.blogspot.com. I’m retired after 25 years in the IT department at Siena College. I live in Schenectady with my wife Susan.

About our Guest: AK Nevermore writes Sci-fi & dark romantasy with spice. She enjoys operating heavy machinery, freebases coffee, and gives up sarcasm for Lent every year. I’m sending you my bio because it’s super early when I’m filling this out and my mind is a vacuum at the moment. A Jane-of-all-trades, AK’s a certified chef, restores antiques, and dabbles in beekeeping when she’s not reading voraciously or running down the dream in her beat-up camo Chucks. Unable to ignore the voices in her head, and unwilling to become medicated, she writes full time around a nest full of ravens. Her books explore dark worlds, perversely irreverent and profound, and always entertaining. AK belongs to a bunch of industry associations, volunteers for far too many committees, teaches creative writing, and on the rare occasion, sleeps.

About our Guest: I’m USA Today bestselling author Russell Nohelty. People generally know me as a fantasy author, comic book creator, and professional speaker, but I’m also a serial creative entrepreneur. Throughout my career, I have owned a movie production company, a photography studio, a Verizon dealership, and more. Currently, I own Wannabe Press and co-founded Writer MBA with my business partner Monica Leonelle. Together, we also co-founded the Future of Publishing Mastermind and cocreated the Author Ecosystems.

From Frances Billinghurst: I am an author, metaphysician, and initiate of a modern Mystery spiritual path with ancient influences residing in the Antipodes, south of the equator. I have long been drawn to the Mysteries of the cosmos - regardless of how they have appeared through myth and legend, sacred symbolism or in the liminal dreamscape. This has led to the study of various esoteric and occult sciences, with being initiated into a number of traditions that focus around understanding these sacred portals between the worlds. The books I write are based on my explorations, personal discoveries and research, often from the perspective of living south of the equator, as well as from a personal embodiment, or lived experience.

About our Guest: After a quarter of a century of working in corporate managerial and software engineering roles with the Ministry of Defence I knew I had to get out - but I can be very stubborn, and fearful of change. I hung on, waiting for a Round Tooit to come along but, as you know, they’re’ just about extinct! Eventually, it got so bad I ended up crippled by rheumatoid arthritis and osteoporosis plus a whole set of add-on autoimmune conditions. I gave up my stubborn resistance and let otherworld to lead me towards a much more satisfying way of living. I got medically retired, but I can’t sit around doing nothing! So I became a transpersonal psychotherapist and began offering the old wild-heart wild-magic I was brought up in twined with the transpersonal skills, as a new way of living magically. For the past 30 years I’ve helped so many people - who’ve all, in their own ways, gone though similar self-discoveries - to thrive.

About our Guest: When I was eleven, my school held a mock-census. One of the questions — a very obvious question to include — was “What do you want to be when you grow up?” There were the usual answers you’d expect; soldiers, firefighters, pilots, and the inevitable wit who put “A man”. Out of the whole school, over a hundred pupils, only one person put “Novelist”. (Not even “writer”, you’ll note. “Novelist”.) If you guessed that one person was me — well, you win a no-prize, I suppose. I bowed to pressure and went off to be a lawyer instead, but sanity prevailed and I got out of the legal racket to find a career that left me with enough spare brain-power and time to write. And so I write; sharp, distinctive fiction, most often in my first love, the science fiction and fantasy genre. My first novel, The Psychopath Club, appeared in 2021 from The Canal Press. The same publisher, failing to learn any better, is also responsible for The Devil’s Finger (2023) and Three Men In Orbit (forthcoming, August 2024). Doffing my novelist’s hat and replacing it with a poet’s one, I’m also the author of Poetry Slum, a collection of verse covering a broad range of topics, most of them controversial or argumentative. (I don’t see much point in cosy poetry). I continue to pen poems alongside my fiction, and I expect I always shall; prose I have to work on, but poetry just happens to me.

KC Walker does her best to avoid meaningful employment. This often conflicts with her desire for the finer things in life, such as food and shelter. Writing novels seemed to be an acceptable compromise, since making up stories can hardly be called work. One day, KC took a look at her rescue dog Kit and thought, “Why isn’t this freeloader contributing to the household coffers?” Soon, the idea of a snarky yet (hopefully) lovable stuntwoman named Whit and her tiny demon dog came to mind and the first story began to form. KC and Kit live in Southern California where they enjoy long walks, snacks, and making new friends.

I ran an adventure to introduce my children to the game, and it was so much fun I said “This would make a great book.” I took advantage of NaNoWriMo to get that project started, and 5 years later I’m releasing book 2 of the series, under the pen name R.

Stone is a multi-award-winning, multi-genre, traditionally and independently published author. She writes books people want to read. Her stories are about the importance of friends and family, regardless of genre. They are about overcoming obstacles, often with humor. Since retiring, she has been a full-time author and blogger. Around the Fire is a popular weekly blog where she introduces both established and new authors, giving an insider’s look into their lives and books as well as tidbits about her own life. A former Emergency Medical Technician, she volunteered in New Jersey and Pennsylvania and worked professionally in a women’s state prison. D. V. was the proprietor of a coffee shop and then a small restaurant/ice cream stand. The years following were as a manager in an animal emergency hospital, while her last position was in a human medical office. When not behind the wheel of 2Hoots—a 41-foot long 13.2 feet high 5th Wheel camper, she rambles around town in Northern New Jersey in a white Camaro. She also loves travel and history. D.V. is a wife to an amazing husband, mother to one son, and not your average grandma to three beautiful grands. A woman of faith, she believes and trusts in God. “My greatest pleasures are spending time outside with friends and family, cooking over the open fire, sipping a glass of wine, and reading.” Hali, her rescue dog, always reminds her to let readers know, “Woof, woof.” Which loosely translates as support your local animal rescue.“ You can learn more about D.
