Authors


Fantasy Author
Jenee Dutary
Jenee is from North Carolina, where she co-leads the Wake Forest Writers' Group and brings her energy to the online writing scene as a co-host of #UnhingedPit on X and Bluesky. When she's not crafting stories, you'll find her diving into WEBTOONs, binge-watching her ever-growing list of A-dramas, or rallying with her family for the NC Hurricanes!

Fantasy and romance author
Laura Foley
Laura Foley is an Irish author hailing from the Kilkenny Countryside where she grew up on a small dairy farm. She now lives on the coast of Wexford with her husband and three children.
With a BA (hons) in Applied Social Studies, she graduated top of her class in 2016. Although writing for four years at this point, after completing her thesis, she finally found the confidence to consider writing as a career.
Laura likes to write in every age category from picture book to adult. But specifically, she only writes stories centered on Irish characters and places. She also loves writing with lyrical tones and enjoys stories that take place within time or place constraints to amplify the emotions of both the characters and readers.
Fans of the female Irish literary scene will be drawn to her romance work.

Memoir
Katie Hallee
Katie is a cancer survivor, TEDx speaker, and the author behind the widely-read blog Katie Over Cancer. As an attorney and writer, she’s spent years navigating the unexpected turns of life after remission—where survival was supposed to be the finish line, but instead marked a complicated new beginning. Now, Katie is working on her first memoir, exploring the raw, honest, and often untold reality of what comes after cancer, and how life doesn’t always get easier when you expect it to.

Multi Genre Author
E.S. Raye
A dual citizen of the United States and Canada, E.S. Raye has a B.A. in Psychology from Carleton University, and a diploma in Creative Advertising from Seneca College. This study of human behavior helps him write complex characters with meaningful motivations. He writes horror and science fiction short stories, novels, and screenplays and is editor-in-chief of Perseid Prophecies: Weird Fiction, Science Fiction, Fantasy & Fact.
E.S. lives in southern Ontario, Canada with his incredibly patient wife Jessie, the quintessential orange cat, a stubborn French bulldog, and a happy-go-lucky mutt from Greece. When he isn't writing, reading, or editing, he lets people shoot pucks at him for fun three nights a week.

FANTASY AND ROMANCE AUTHOR
Julia Rylen
Julia writes the kind of stories she loves to read: high stakes, sharp edges, and just enough truth to make you a little uncomfortable. As a romance and fantasy author, she’s no stranger to messy characters and impossible choices—but her first publication with Alex Parker veers into YA science fiction, landing uncomfortably close to today’s AI-driven reality.

Fantasy Novelist
Rowan Wolf
Rowan Wolf is a writer, publisher, and dedicated caffeine addict living in southern California with her family and two golden retrievers—her most loyal (and occasionally disruptive) coworkers. Originally from Ohio, she has a background in design, which mostly means she spends an unreasonable amount of time obsessing over fonts and rearranging things that were probably fine to begin with.
When she’s not knee-deep in publishing (or trying to convince herself that one more spreadsheet will solve everything), she’s lost in the world of her epic fantasy series, Canen Dera—a project that’s been with her so long, it might as well start paying rent. She survives on an unholy amount of coffee in the morning, cabernet at night, and is even trying to step away from the desk, training to hike El Capitan in Yosemite, because, apparently, fresh air is important.
