Rosenberg is a policy wonk, armchair economist, and real-life world traveler who has not actually visited any of the worlds mentioned in this novella--yet. Rosenberg's early career was spent fighting in the trenches of Southern California's local politics and they currently work at one of D.C.'s many alphabet soup think tanks, brainstorming all sorts of amazing ways to save the planet. Jodie Keenan is a graduate of Maine College of Art who has spent the past decade meandering the spookiest backroads of New England in her career as a professional photographer and meeting very interesting people in her passion for roller derby. She frequently picks up hitchhikers; however, to the best of her knowledge, none have been undead. Over the last twelve years, A.G. Travers has written four novels, six novellas, and over three hundred and fifty poems. She is known for her contributions to Verse Magazine, the Red Ogre Review, and the Antithesis Journal. Currently, A.G. Travers is writing her fifth novel and studying education and creative writing at the University of South Australia. Russell Carmony is a fiction and essay writer from New York City. His work has appeared in The Painted Bride Quarterly, Eclectica Magazine, OpenDemocracy.net, The Wild Roof Journal, ZIN Daily, and [sub]liminal. Ian Naranjo was born in Santa Fe, NM. His first stories were Godzilla and Whinnie the Pooh crossovers which he envisioned on the playground when he was six years old. Since then he's received a Bachelor's degree in Media Arts with a Minor in English from the University of New Mexico, and has even been published in Meat for Tea: The Valley Review, The Write Launch, and The Bookends Review. He hopes anyone reading this has a wonderful rest of their day and keeps following their dreams, because everyone needs a dream!
