Heather MacNeill

Current projects involve a postmodern novella, and a collection of short stories revisioning biblical narratives. She currently resides in Glasgow, Scotland, where she is working on a Masters of Letters in Modernity. When she isn't cramming D. H. Lawrence and feminist theory into her brain, you can find Heather hiding under stairwells surreptitiously trying to look up young men's kilts.

Craig A. McKenzie
Craig A. McKenzie studied under a master woodworker until the age of 12, when he discovered an enlarger in his basement and abandoned his training. One very early morning when he was 15, his father woke him, saying " The bar is burning...You should go take some photos" and he did. These photos landed him a job at the local weekly newspaper where his primary task was photographer and darkroom technician. Craig graduated high school, and attended St. Clair County Community College where he studied graphic design. He was awarded a scholarship to study abroad in Japan for the summer, and upon his return, was awarded a full tuition scholarship at The College for Creative Studies in Detroit. He graduated with a double major in Graphic Design and Photography. He has dedicated this past year to learning the ins and outs of digital photography. You can see more of his work at www.mckenziebrosphotography.com.

Reid Mitchell
Reid Mitchell lives in New Orleans except at those times the city is unlivable--which is a judgment call. He has published the novel A Man Under Authority, some scattered stories and poems, and several dialogues he's written with Tammy Ho.

Brett Allen Smith
Brett Allen Smith really enjoys that David Lynch television series from the early 90's, Twin Peaks. He wishes Miranda July would notice him. When he's in a bad mood he watches Boogie Nights, after which time he refuses to answer to any name other than Dirk Diggler for a period of about a day. When he was five he was too afraid to dress up as a pirate for Pirate Day at his preschool so he dressed up as Peter Pan instead and accidentally fell into the Fisher-Price water pool and the teachers cancelled Pirate Day as a result of his wetness, and to his knowledge there has never since been another Pirate Day. He ruined Pirate Day for his and every following generation.
