Cornell, Arthur Carey, David Cleden, F. T. Berner, Raluca Balasa, Melissa Mead, Nicholas Stillman, Shannon Brady, Bonnie McCune, Brian Rappatta, Bruce Arthurs, Alicia Cay, Danielle Mullen, E. J.

About the authors
Nemma Wollenfang is an MSc Postgraduate and prize-winning short story writer who lives in the gloomy, windswept North of England. Generally she adheres to Science Fiction – perhaps as a result of years in the laboratory cackling like a mad scientist – but she has been known to branch out, especially if there is a romantic twist to be had. Her stories have appeared in several venues, including: Beyond the Stars, Abyss & Apex, Cossmass Infinities, Chicken Soup for the Soul, and Flame Tree’s Gothic Fantasy series. She is a recipient of the Speculative Literature Foundation's Working Class Writers Grant for her in-progress novel, and can be found on Facebook, Twitter, and at her website: www.nemmawollenfang.co.uk.
P.A. Cornell is a Chilean-Canadian speculative fiction writer who penned her first science-fiction story as a third-grade assignment (for those curious, it was about shape-shifting aliens). A member of SFWA and graduate of the Odyssey workshop, her short fiction has appeared in several professional anthologies and genre magazines. A complete bibliography can be found at pacornell.com.
Paula Hammond has worked as a publisher, copy-writer, ghost-writer, author, and journalist. She has written over 50 fiction and non-fiction books as well as sponsored resources, comics, poetry, and scripts for DVDs and CD-ROMS. Clients include Harper Collins, Marshall Cavendish, Scholastic, World Book, Disney, Betty Crocker, and the BBC. She also contributes to a wide variety of news-stand magazines and journals. A selection of her publications can be viewed on Amazon and Pinterest (WriterPaula).
Bestselling author Wulf Moon has always known he's a writer. He believes you are born with the gift. The rest is dedication, education, and polishing your craft. And courage. You have to serve seven cats--every successful writer knows that--but allow only ONE in your office. But if you want more proof, he won BEST AUTHOR OF 2019, of 2020, and again in 2021, where thousands of readers voted in the Critters Readers' Choice Awards. If you need more proof than that (my goodness!), here it is:
At fifteen, Moon wrote a science fiction story that won the national Scholastic Art and Writing Awards--the same contest that first discovered Stephen King, Truman Capote, Joyce Carol Oates, John Updike and a multitude of iconic names in the arts. This became his first professional sale in Science World (print circulation 500,000/month). Since then he has won more than 40 awards in writing, just as many in public speaking, and a full scholarship to a private college—a good thing to happen to a kid in a foster home.
More recent credits include his Star Trek story “Seventh Heaven” published by Simon and Schuster’s Pocket Books in STAR TREK: STRANGE NEW WORLDS II. A Borg love story. What could be sweeter?
Moon won a contest sponsored by New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts. His entry took First Place and became the conclusion to her novella, “Riley Slade’s Return.”
"War Dog," Moon's historical fantasy in the time of the conquistadors, was published in TERRA! TARA! TERROR! from Third Flatiron Publishing. Thousands from around the globe voted for their faves in the 2018 Critters Annual Readers' Poll. "War Dog" won BEST SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY SHORT STORY PUBLISHED IN 2018! In addition, Moon won this award again in 2019 (see below). And in 2020, Moon won this award for the third year in a row with "Muzik Man" in Deep Magic, Fall 2020. "Muzik Man" also received accolades in Tangent Online, and earned the honor of being a starred listing on the coveted Tangent Recommended Reading List for novelettes published in 2020.
Moon has won the international talent search for the best new writers in speculative fiction: the Writers of the Future Contest. His award-winning SF story, "Super-Duper Moongirl and the Amazing Moon Dawdler," was published in the #1 bestselling anthology WRITERS OF THE FUTURE, VOL. 35. In the Critters Readers' Choice Awards, "Super-Duper Moongirl..." won BEST SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY SHORT STORY PUBLISHED IN 2019!
