Dylan Kinnett is a writer and spoken word performance artist. His writing alters traditional literary forms using media, hypertext, and performance. Lately, Kinnett has published two plays in the anthology, American Theatre in the Twenty-First Century (Future Publishing House.)

His chapbook, Litanies and Reiterations, experiments with repetition, ritual, frustration, and futility. Kinnett was selected for the 23rd Annual Critics’ Residency program, at the Maryland Art Place. His work has been published or performed by Otoliths, University of Baltimore, Annex Theater, Artscape, and others. Kinnett’s multimedia works include the book with digital insert An Internet (with Ink Press Productions,) a haiku projected on an LED billboard in Baltimore, What's The Catch? (spoken word performance with an array of analogue telephones), To Win Simply Play (a hypertext novella), and Strange Punctuation (a spoken word album). Raised in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, Kinnett lives in Baltimore.

Ian Whates is a writer and editor of science fiction, fantasy, and occasionally horror. He is the author of seven novels (four space opera and three urban fantasy with steampunk overtones), the co-author of two more (military SF), has seen sixty-odd of his short stories published in a variety of venues, and is responsible for editing around thirty anthologies.

His work has been shortlisted for the Philip K Dick Award and twice for BSFA Awards. His novel Pelquin’s Comet, first in the Dark Angels sequence, was an Amazon UK #1 best seller, and he has seen his writing translated into Spanish, German, Hungarian, Czech and Greek. Ian served a term as a director of SFWA (the Science Fiction Writers of America) and is a director of the BSFA (the British Science Fiction Association) an organisation he chaired for five years.

In 2006 Ian founded multiple award-winning independent publisher NewCon Press by accident, and he continues to puzzle over how the press now has 90-odd titles to its credit and counting.

Ian lives in a quiet Cambridgeshire village with his partner, Helen, and a far-from-quiet cocker spaniel called Bundle.

Until then, she and her boyfriend live just over the Arkansas-Missouri state line, where they keep buying more books than they have room for.
