Who We Are

Meet Christian
(Urban Fantasy)


I'm an Asian American ex-mental health specialist turned entertainment Journalist based just outside of NYC. In my former career, I used to help clients with comorbidity diagnoses, which were often addiction and/or personality disorders, organize their lives and get their life back on track. Eventually, I left to pursue my passions and became a freelance journalist while writing screenplay and comic book scripts on the side.

I currently cover article topics about TV, Movies, Comics, and Video Gaming. I am working to self-publish two graphic novels and continue to write spec scripts for my screenwriting career.

I have contacts in both the Gaming and TV industry and typically am open to respond to both DM and E-mails.

Meet Victor
(Urban Fantasy)


Victor Catano lives in New York City with his wonderful wife, Kim, and his adorable pughuaua, Danerys. When not writing, he works in live theater as a stage manager, production manager, and chaos coordinator. His hobbies include coffee, Broadway musicals, and complaining about the NY Mets and Philadelphia Eagles.

Meet Kayleigh
(Horror)


Kayleigh Dobbs is a writer of horror and comedy from the deep dark valleys of South Wales in the UK. She is a lover of post-apocalyptic fiction in any and all forms, and is strangely comforted by that emergency air-raid alarm sound that signals the end is nigh. Her writing is mostly inspired by the people around her, and the odd things they say.

Meet Jess
(Adventure, Dark Fantasy)


Jess is an indie writer from Wrightsville, PA. Her range of work includes dark fantasy, adventure, science fiction, and comedy, though she continues to explore other genres. You can see her list of published works on her website.

Meet Mary
(SFF)

 Website | Blog Twitter | Facebook | Goodreads Tumblr

I write things. Things with spaceships, spells, monsters, and mayhem. Like the Jane Colt Trilogy (sci-fi), the Flynn Nightsider series (YA dystopia/fantasy), and the Fated Stars series (YA high fantasy). Lifelong nerd, incurable daydreamer, shameless font aficionado. I stand for diversity in books and more girls in STEM. Didn't see enough of the latter in sci-fi so I co-published an anthology filled with them (Brave New Girls: Tales of Girls and Gadgets). I aim to entertain.

Meet Samantha
(Resident Reviewer)


I'm married and a mom of two. I enjoy both reading and reviewing. I'm an active user on Instagram and Goodreads (@samanthas_shelf). I also leave reviews on Amazon and Godless.com. Some genres that I enjoy reading are: Fiction/Historical Fiction, Mystery/Thriller, Horror/Extreme Horror, New/Young Adult, Children's/Middle Grade Books, LGBTQ, Dystopian, Inspired By True Events, Myths/Fables/Retellings, and True Crime. WHERE THE RED FERN GROWS by Wilson Rawls is my favorite novel.

Meet Stephen
(Horror)

Stephen Kozeniewski is the author of bestselling horror novels BRAINEATER JONES and THE GHOUL ARCHIPELAGO, and was a contributor to the #1 bestselling charity horror anthology AT HELL'S GATES. He also wrote BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS, and really hopes that a few folks will hop on the bandwagon there so he can just start saying "author of three bestselling novels." His father once came very close to opening for Jeffrey Tambor at an open mic night. Everyone's life, of course, is littered with missed opportunities. May yours not be picking up a copy of BILLY AND THE CLONEASAURUS right now.

Meet Karissa
(Fantasy)


Karissa will be your Tiny Dancer for Super Heroes, Star Wars, Southern cuisine & Hindi cinema. An author of fantasy fiction in its myriad forms, she has published two complete series, The Norse Chronicles (adult urban fantasy) and The Stormbourne Chronicles (young adult epic fantasy), along with Touch of Smoke ( a stand-alone paranormal romance) and dozens of short stories. She's also the assistant editor at Cast of Wonders, a young adult speculative fiction podcast. She lives in North Carolina with her kid, her husband, the occasional in-law, and a very hairy husky named Bonnie.
