Alex Beecroft

Biography

Alex Beecroft was born in Northern Ireland during the Troubles and grew up in the wild countryside of the Peak District. Alex studied English and Philosophy before accepting employment with the Crown Court where she worked for a number of years. Now a stay-at-home mum and full time author, Alex lives with her husband and two daughters in a little village near Cambridge and tries to avoid being mistaken for a tourist.

Alex is only intermittently present in the real world. She has lead a Saxon shield wall into battle, toiled as a Georgian kitchen maid, and recently taken up an 800 year old form of English folk dance, but she still hasn't learned to operate a mobile phone.

    Charlie Cochrane

    Biography

    Charlie Cochrane writes gay fiction, predominantly historical romances/mysteries, but with an increasing number of forays into the modern day. She's even been known to write about gay werewolves — highly respectable ones.

    Charlie was named Author of the Year 2009 by the review site Speak Its Name.

    Biography

    After spending thirty-five years learning the craft of writing as a scientific and technical writer and editor, author E. N. Holland finally decided to pursue a lifelong dream to write fiction.

Ms. Holland has two other novels underway and dozens of ideas lined up in her brain. She lives in an antique cape (built in 1803) in southern Maine with her husband, two children, dog, and cat.

  • Hayden Thorne

    Biography

    Hayden Thorne has lived most of her life in the San Francisco Bay Area though she wasn't born there (or, indeed, the USA). She's married with no kids and three cats, is a cycling nut (go Team Garmin!), and her day job involves artwork, crazy (read: incomprehensibly fun) coworkers who specialize in all kinds of media, and the occasional strange customer requests involving papier mache fish with sparkly scales.

    She's a writer of young adult fiction, specializing in contemporary fantasy, historical fantasy, and historical genres. Her books range from a superhero fantasy series to reworked folktales to Victorian ghost fiction. Her themes are coming-of-age, with very little focus on romance (most of the time) and more on individual growth with some adventure thrown in.

  • K. C. Warwick

    Biography

    K. C. Warwick lives in the heart of England, amidst countryside reputed to have inspired both Shakespeare and Tolkien. It's therefore not surprising that she writes history and fantasy, sometimes even combining the two! She has been writing since she could hold a pencil, but finds it considerably easier now that computers have been invented. Although she likes to think of herself as a writer, she also runs a business, looks after horses, and edits a quarterly magazine.
