About The Authors
Joe Procopio
Joe Procopio hopes to start trading on his own name very soon, because too many people know what Max Barry looks like these days. He's written for a number of online and offline publications from the late, lamented Smug to the fancy-pants Chicago Tribune and also for television (Hip Hop Nation, Undiscovered Genius). He's a novelist, a shredder, and a joker, but also a family man, just not in that horrible Nic Cage way.
Jael McHenry
Jael is tired of being stereotyped as just another novelist/poet/former English teacher/tour guide/"Jeopardy!" semifinalist/bellydancing editor-in-chief with an MFA who was once an overachieving oboe-playing alto newspaper editor valedictorian from Iowa. She was also captain of the football cheerleading squad.
Adam Kraemer
A native of Elkins Park, PA, Adam Kraemer spends way too much of his time repeating "K-R-A-E..." He moved to New York City in 1998 and earned Master's in Journalism at NYU; don't let his writing fool you. He feels he is best known for saying the things no one is thinking, but afterwards wish they had been. He spends his free time wondering where all his free time goes and why he can never come up with a decent kicker for the ends of his articles.
Michelle Von Euw
Originally from Boston, Michelle is a writer, editor, instructor, obsessive sports fan, loud talker, quick laugher, and chances are, she watches more television than you do.
Mike Julianelle
Mike Julianelle is the kind of person who doesn't write bios.
Tracey Kelley
Tracey likes to shake things up and then take the lid off. She also likes to keep the peace, especially in a safe, fuzzy place. She is the owner of re: communications, mainly because she was caught running with scissors in the corporate world and, well, people started to talk.
Erik Lars Myers
An expert with pints, a master with yards, erik lars myers is a professional beer drinker. he has been drinking beer for various professional organizations and charity causes for years and is pleased to be able to lend his ample beer gut for the good of others. his current pet projects include two websites (the people's regime and topfermented), growing his own hops, culturing yeast from the dregs of your bottle of beer and far, far too many video games.
Jason Gilmore
The Toledo, Ohio native has also been published at ThaHipHop.com, native magazine and Gadfly. His feature-length screenplays have been recognized by the Sundance Screenwriters' Lab and the Texas Film Institute, while his coming of age novel, Somewhere Between Here and There, is currently being considered by several literary agents. A short film, How Shawn Parker Fell in Love, in which he wrote, directed and starred, premiered at the 2007 San Francisco Black Film Festival.
Jeffrey D. Walker
A practicing attorney and semi-professional musician, Walker writes for his own amusement, for the sake of opinion, to garner a couple of laughs, and to perhaps provoke a question or two, but otherwise, he doesn't think it'll amount to much.
Russ Carr
Russ is available for YOU! A qualified graphic designer, manager, art director, advisor, consultant, publisher, editor, writer and SO MUCH MORE wrapped up in an attractive mobile case.
Maigen Thomas
Maigen is a Flight Attendant-cum-Jumpseat Therapist, it seems. People come to her with problems, but people also don't realize she's hearing more than they want her to. She's traveling the world and writing about her experiences with life, love, food, travel and people. Mostly people. Because they're funny.
Alex B
A happy-go-lucky raspberry swirl in a decidedly vanilla world, Alex B has a head for business, a bod for sin, and a weakness for ice cream during all seasons. As a bonus, she is even equipped with a wide range of big words to choose from. (Don't let her deceive you when she bats her lashes. She owns a whip).
Heather Millen
Heather has a penchant for drama, both personally and professionally. She secretly wishes people spoke in song and wholeheartedly believes that everyone deserves a standing ovation now and again. She finds it appalling that people reserve champagne only for special occasions, when champagne is clearly best on a Tuesday, while riding the subway, accompanying a slice of kick-ass pizza.
Margot Carmichael Lester
Deftly walking the line between fire-eating sideshow attraction and sex symbol for the intelligentsia. Margot’s a journalist and writer, covering business and pleasure for a variety of newspapers, magazines and web sites across the land. She’s also the author of four books, including Be a Better Writer: Power Tools for Young Writers -- co-written with her husband, Steve Peha -- won the 2007 Independent Publishers Association gold medal for teen/young-adult nonfiction. A Southern Belle, she was born, raised and still lives in Carrboro, N.C.
Daniel Castro
Great, outgoing guy in his mid 20's. Works and parties hard. Obsessed with music. Oh wait, this isn't match.com
Reem Al-Omari
Reem holds a BA in Journalism and is practicing it as an editor in chief of a newspaper in Denver. She loves animals and movies. Add books and traveling to the pile, and she's a really happy camper.
Robert Melos
Robert is the author of the novels Cool Mint Blue and Melba Ridge, and is the creator of the on-line comix Impure Thoughts found at his web site. He is a staff writer for QBliss where he has a monthly humor column. In his non-writing time, when he's not studying the metaphysical or creating a tarot deck, he sells real estate in Middlesex County New Jersey, hangs out with his dog Zeus, and grooves to the music in his mind.
Dan Gonzalez
Maybe it's you, maybe it's Dan. Things aren't quite the way they should be. And now it seems Dan's peace of mind has come up for the bidding, and those that he respects and trusts must all have been just kidding. Dan's little world has lost control, but still it keeps on spinnin'.
Cheryl L
Photographer. Writer. World traveler. Gamer. Avid reader. Computer enthusiast. Connecticut yankee-turned-Chicagoan. Hockey fan. Drives American. Eats organically and locally. Supports no-kill animal shelters and children's charities. Likes intelligent debate.
Kevin Sonney
Kevin Sonney - who, contrary to popular opinion was NOT raised by wolves - grew up in central North Carolina. He fell into the technology field by accident in 1991, when he gave up the wild and crazy lifestyle of an on-air AM radio DJ to become a mundane technical support monkey. The technology industry has never really recovered from this. In his spare time he rescues stray animals and plays video games with his two sons. His girlfriend, we're sad to say, helps him get past the really hard bits.
