THE AUTHORS | |
|
Joe Procopio
Joe Procopio hopes to start trading on his own name very soon, because too many people know what Max Barry looks like these days. He's written for a number of online and offline publications from the late, lamented Smug to the fancy-pants Chicago Tribune and also for television (Hip Hop Nation, Undiscovered Genius). He's a novelist, a shredder, and a joker, but also a family man, just not in that horrible Nic Cage way.

Jael McHenry
Jael is tired of being stereotyped as just another novelist/poet/former English teacher/tour guide/"Jeopardy!" semifinalist/bellydancing editor-in-chief with an MFA who was once an overachieving oboe-playing alto newspaper editor valedictorian from Iowa. She was also captain of the football cheerleading squad. In the present day, she's the author of the debut novel SIMMER, coming in Spring 2011 from Simon & Schuster.

Adam Kraemer
A native of Elkins Park, PA, Adam Kraemer spends way too much of his time repeating "K-R-A-E..." He moved to New York City in 1998 and earned Master's in Journalism at NYU. He feels he is best known for saying the things no one is thinking, but afterwards wish they had been. He spends his free time wondering where all his free time goes and why he can never come up with a decent kicker for the ends of his articles.

Kevin Sonney
Kevin Sonney - who, contrary to popular opinion was NOT raised by wolves - grew up in central North Carolina. He fell into the technology field by accident in 1991, when he gave up the wild and crazy lifestyle of an on-air AM radio DJ to become a mundane technical support monkey.

A computer programmer-cum-marketing executive-cum-financial planner who now wants to be a writer, he apparently can't decide what he wants to be when he grows up. He and his family moved to The Southern Part of Heaven in 2005 and couldn't be happier with that decision.

Katherine L
When I grow up, I want to be; whoever Joss Whedon wants to be, when he grows up. My work includes screenplays, short stories, film/TV/music reviews and socio-political commentary. The last one is a fancy way of saying I like to shoot my mouth off on many topics. I excel at using $1.50 words. They gone up, thanks to inflation. Isn't our economy awesome?
