Kaye Boesme is a poet, conlanger, and writer. She has completed one podcast, Epiphany, a dystopian story about a lesbian professional working through grief while solving an extremist conspiracy. Kaye’s speculative poetry has appeared in Kaleidotrope and Illumen, and she has a short story out in The Society of Misfit Stories Presents. She has self-published one book of poetry, Acts of Speech, which explores religious speech in performative, public, and private contexts. Kaye has a background in library and information science.
Sharon Kae Reamer studied geophysics in Texas. She then just up and moved to Germany to start a family and pursue a career as seismologist at the University of Cologne.
Her research includes a geophysical investigation of ancient Tiryns, Greece, but neither she nor her colleagues has any real hope of answering the question: What killed the Bronze Age?
Sharon writes speculative fiction from her home on the outskirts of Cologne when she manages to chase her cats Loki and Finn off the keyboard.
A coffee-guzzling journalist turned author, Mark Cantrell has chased the literary dream for years. Somehow, it's always managed to stay one step ahead, but Mark perseveres in his pursuit all the same. There are worse ways to kill time, after all.
Mark is the author of two novels (so far), both released in paperback and digital editions by the indie press, Inspired Quill.
Both his novels haunt dystopian ground, but aside from their dark tone they remain very different beasts.
While CITIZEN ZERO (2017) runs towards political science fiction thriller, SILAS MORLOCK (2013) ventures into the shadows of dark, urban fantasy in homage of literary culture.
For want of comparison, in CITIZEN ZERO The Matrix meets V for Vendetta with a touch of I, Daniel Blake. SILAS MORLOCK, though, is more a macabre melding of Fahrenheit 451 and Nosferatu.
Away from novel-length works, Mark has written plenty of short stories and novelettes in his time. He's even been known to dabble in poetry. Over the years, his stories have appeared in a variety of small press journals both in print and online.
Way back in 1998, two of his stories were featured in the Clover Books horror anthology, Spirit of Darkness. In 2001 there was Love, Sex, Death & Carrots. More recently, his work appeared in Bards and Sages Publishing's The Society of Misfit Stories Presents, Vol 1, Issue 1 (February 2019).
Between times, his fiction has appeared in publications such as Sci-Fright, Alternaties, Asphalt Jungle, Writers' Muse, the Writers' Compass, and more. He's even self-published some of these works, individually as 'digital shorts', and in his collection of short fiction, ISOLATION SPACE (2009/2011). Available through Smashwords, you can find more details of these works below.
Broadly speaking, Mark's work fits into the science-fiction-fantasy-horror spectrum, but he tends to write to the story and worry about the genre later. It seems to work, more or less. Certainly, he's happy (flattered) to be called a science fiction author even if he frequently feels unworthy of the accolade.
By trade, Mark is a journalist. This is reflected on his author blog, where he writes articles about politics, society and current affairs, along with regular excursions into science, culture and literary life. Well, it keeps the 'blog-beast' fed.
As a jobbing B2B hack, Mark has mostly written for trade mags. He worked in Manche...
