33 Neon and Nebulas

Raised on fantasy novels and 80s pop culture, Charles Eugene 'Chuck' Anderson brings extensive world-building and a sense of adventure. Chuck makes art, gaming, or runs when not writing. He lives in Aurora, Colorado.

A trip to the library when he was ten, sidetracked his promising writing career for a few score mastering the secrets of computer programming.  He earned a black-belt, wrote and recorded a terrible music album and got a patent during those dark years. Yet the words itched to come out, so here we are. 

KL Forslund keeps his stuff in Texas where he cosplays, writes quirky stories, makes things, plays with light sabers, and competes in steampunk poetry slams. His wife and pets find him useful, and he shares helpful information (and free fiction!) in his blog.

PS. He finally won the steampunk poetry slam with Hallowed Be Thy Gears.

Joel Ewy is centrally located for your convenience, has a wife and two kids, and took the Liberal Arts concept way more seriously than it was probably ever intended to be. He's a digital philosopher, and also fixes computers, sometimes for pay.

Joel has an extensive collection of classic computers from the late '70s to the early '90s and beyond, but he's still looking for that free Atari ST to fall out of the sky. Use your best faux German accent, or pretend you're Dr. Strangelove when you say his last name, and you might get it right. (Hint: Ay-Vee)

You can also find him in the Alternative Truths Anthology.
