Jaleta Clegg loves to make up stuff then tell stories about it. Her life is full of imaginary friends who go on adventures all the time. The only way she can go along is as the narrator and scribe. So she writes down what the imaginary voices in her head tell her, then publishes them as science fiction adventure, steampunk fairy stories, silly horror, and all sorts of other things.
She has an eleven book space opera series, a steampunk fairy novel, and dozens of short stories out in the wild.
When not writing down her adventures, Jaleta is usually playing with yarn, cooking strange dishes, watching too much tv, and dreaming up more stuff to write down. She lives in Washington state with a diminishing horde of children, elderly pets, a very patient husband, and lots and lots of books.

D.J. Butler (Dave) is a novelist living in the Rocky Mountain northwest. His training is in law, and he worked as a securities lawyer at a major international firm and inhouse at two multinational semiconductor manufacturers before taking up writing fiction. He is a lover of language and languages, a guitarist and self-recorder, and a serious reader. He is married to a powerful and clever woman and together they have three devious children.
Dave has been writing fiction full-time since 2010. He writes speculative fiction (roughly, fantasy, science fiction, space opera, steampunk, cyberpunk, superhero, alternate history, dystopian fiction, horror and related genres) for all audiences. He has written and is writing novels for middle grade, young adult and adult readers. He has literary representation and is working on getting published in hard copy; in the meantime, he is entertaining readers with Rock Band Fights Evil. Dave has always had a soft spot for good pulp fiction.
I’ve arrived at my writing debut via a life in engineering, painting and sculpting.
Not a usual path for an author, for certain.
Starting at school in Chichester in the south of England, via University at Imperial College, London, UK – where H.G.Wells made his start – I worked through a bunch of jobs mainly in the project management side of the construction industry in England, I finally settled in Southern Ontario, Canada. There, I worked in steel, public housing and bank sectors. Early retirement allowed me to say goodbye to industry. Moved on to Ontario College of Art and Design for honours in Sculpture and Installation. Worked my art practice in a shared stone sculpture studio for over ten years. Now resting my overworked arms to pursue writing.
Generally a life well lived, exposed to all those left weighted brains and right ones too.
Do I sound a bit straight up to you? Maybe. But read what I have to say before you reach any hard onclusion.

Not Your Standard Hero
We all know what heroes are like, right? Brilliant smiles, superpowers, above average beauty, love to pose for the cameras and bask in the limelight? The heroes found here are not your standard hero. Here you'll find shapeshifting (but ditzy) detectives, considerate sidekicks, avid romance readers, lunar garbage collectors, and more!
These stories tell of heroes like Tom Grover, who was a hero of a different stripe in the Utah sf&f community in the 1980s. He was always willing to help, he took care of issues that came up without being asked, and he rarely received accolades for all he did.
