Julie Ann Dawson is an author, editor, publisher, RPG designer, and advocate for writers who may occasionally require the services of someone with access to Force Lightning (and in case it was not obvious, a bit of a geek).
Her work has appeared in a variety of print and digital media, including such diverse publications as the New Jersey Review of Literature, Lucidity, Black Bough, Poetry Magazine, Gareth Blackmore’s Unusual Tales, Demonground, The Philadelphia Inquirer, and others.
In 2002 she started her own publishing company, Bards and Sages. The company has gone from having two titles to over one hundred titles between their print and digital products.

Chad Strong is a Canadian author to whom the "Three R's" means: Readin', Writin', and Ridin'- his greatest passions.
Chad discovered the power of books at a young age and has been enjoying and learning through the written word ever since. His main interests lie in westerns, fantasy, history, mythology, and literary classics. As with his reading preferences, Chad's writing does not adhere to any one particular genre. He writes the stories that hassle him, demanding to be told, be they western, fantasy, supernatural, suspense, young adult, mainstream, or any combination thereof.
Chad's first novel, "High Stakes", made it to the Finals for both a Peacemaker Award by the Western Fictioneers in the category of Best First Western Novel, and for a RONE Award by InD'Tale Magazine in the American Historical category.
"High Stakes" appeals to both male and female audiences with its western grit, historical interest, and romantic elements. Set in Victoria, BC, Canada the novel has received favourable reviews, including one from noted Victoria historian, Norman K. Archer.
A dedicated horseman as well, Chad's time and energy have always been divided by his two greatest passions – horses and books. Largely self-taught beyond high school, Chad's first bits of writing success came through short stories and non-fiction articles, with years passing between publications. Along with High Stakes' nominations, a few of his short stories have been chosen as readers’ favourites.
After a number of readers asked, Chad gathered several of his short stories into a single volume called "Mixed Grazing - A Collection of Short Stories", which features stories of different genres together.
