Brenden Haukos (pronounced Hocus Pocus) lives in central Minnesota. His first published story appeared in Cthulhu Sex Magazine. Brenden wishes he could say he is a twelve year-old boy with a chain-smoking alcoholic mother that keeps him locked in the basement with the family's six dogs and thirteen cats — their lawn left unmowed so long, the grass brushes against the windows. For effect. He only lives next to these people.

Edward C. Lynskey's work has appeared in such venues as Strange

Muse, and Planet Magazine.

Darja Malcolm-Clarke has masters degrees in Folklore and English and is working towards a doctorate in the latter, studying speculative literature and critical theory.

She lives in numinous southern Indiana where cornfields watch and buildings of limestone lie in wait.
