Michelle Grubb (michellegrubb.com) is Tasmanian born and now resides in the UK, just north of London, with her wife. She’s a fair-weather golfer, a happy snapper, and a lover of cafés, vinyl records, and bookshops.
Michelle harbors an unnatural love for stray pieces of timber (she promises her wife she’ll build her something one day), secondhand furniture shops, and the perfect coffee.
She can play six chords on her guitar, stumble through a song on her drum kit, and if you see her wearing headphones, she’s probably listening to Mumford & Sons while dreaming up stories and plot twists.
It goes without saying that writing is Michelle’s favorite thing to do. She can be contacted at michellegrubb@me.com.

Originally from Cuba, Ali Vali has retained much of her family’s traditions and language and uses them frequently in her stories. Having her father read her stories and poetry before bed every night as a child infused her with a love of reading, which carries till today. In 2000, Ali decided to embark on a new path and started writing.
She has discovered that living in Louisiana and running a non-profit provides plenty of material to draw from in creating her novels and short stories. Mixing imagination with different life experiences, she creates characters that are engaging to the reader on many levels.
