Julia Jeffrey

Julia Jeffrey is a Scottish artist and illustrator. She studied painting at the famous, Charles Rennie Mackintosh designed, Glasgow School of Art . Her main artistic aim has always been to capture feeling, as expressed through the face and figure. Gradually, through the years, her work has come back closer to the things which first inspired her to want to draw and paint; the sense of magic in the atmosphere of the Scottish countryside, which she experienced in childhood holidays and day-trips, exploring ruined castles and clambering over cairns, and the incredible power of illustrated books to utterly transport you to another world!

Her faery and fantasy-themed work, of recent years, has attracted considerable acclaim and attention, with features in: The Endicott Studio's Journal of Mythic Arts, Faerie Magazine, FAE, and French fantasy periodical Fees Divers. October 2008 saw the publication of her first book cover ( and illustrations) for the young-adult fantasy novel Lament ( Maggie Stiefvater - Flux) , followed this year by more sinister supernatural fare for fellow Scot Daniel McGachey's They That Dwell In Dark Places (Dark Regions) . Also this year her work features alongside celebrated artists and best-selling authors including; Neil Gaiman, Holly Black and Charles De Lint, in the illustrated short story collection Ravens In The Library (Quiet Thunder).

Among his other writing credits are short stories published in Cemetery Dance, Surreal Magazine, Dark Discoveries and Shadowed Realms. The Kult was optioned for film by Gharial Productions.

Daniel McGachey

Daniel McGachey was born in 1970, and grew up in Kilsyth, a small town on the outskirts of Glasgow, Scotland. A steady diet of “Doctor Who”, “2000A.D.” comic strips, Rathbone and Bruce as Holmes and Watson, and the films of Hammer and Amicus left him with an abiding love of the frightening, fantastical and mysterious that, in later years, would lead him to the works of H.P. Lovecraft, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Nigel Kneale, and, most especially, the pleasing terrors of M.R. James.

Since 1989 he has been based in Dundee, where he works in publishing, his career ranging from writing scripts for children’s comics to working in the fields of digital media and animation. Daniel’s ghost stories, which began as an amusement for friends, have appeared in “The BHF Book of Horror Stories” and “Black Book of Horror” series of anthologies, and “Filthy Creations” magazine, while his radio plays; some adapted from his stories, some vice versa; have been broadcast as part of the syndicated mystery and suspense series “Imagination Theater”. He is also a regular contributor of reviews of television and radio adaptations of M.R. James’ ghost stories to the “Ghosts and Scholars M.R. James Newsletter”.

In 2008 Dark Regions Press commissioned Daniel’s first collection of short stories, “They That Dwell in Dark Places”, which is dedicated in part to M.R. James, whose works have strongly influenced both the period and atmosphere of the stories, as well as the creation of Dr. Lawrence, the antiquarian ghost hunter who appears in several of the tales. And moving from M.R. James to another of his literary heroes, his second collection for Dark Regions will pit Conan Doyle’s thoroughly rational detective against the utterly irrational forces of the supernatural in “The Impossible Casebook of Sherlock Holmes”.

Daniel is delighted that the relationship with Dark Regions Press is set to continue, with future books including the linked collection “Wraithvale – Thirteen Rooms in a Haunted House” and “In the Silence Before the Scream”, featuring the return of Dr. Lawrence.

Wayne Miller

M. Wayne Miller, illustrator of the bizarre, fantastic, and strange, made his mark in the 90's as a consummate b/w illustrator for numerous book and magazine publishers, as well as several role-playing game publishers. While the b/w market was a fine place to cut one's freelance illustrator's teeth, and he did well, it was a stepping-stone to the more competitive and lucrative color illustration market. After an artistic conversion to color work, Wayne has re-emerged as a cover illustrator for specialty press and mass-market book publishers, and is pushing his working methodology into the digital realm.

Tom Moran

Artist and illustrator Tom Moran lives in a quiet New England town where he writes and draws things that his working-class neighbors would find abhorrent. A teacher by trade, he dreams of a day when he can leave the schools behind and instead support his mundane lifestyle though the fruits of his imagination. Until then, Tom will keep up his well-honed act of normalcy and pretend that he's not envisioning how to draw someone eating his own arm while conversing with his co-worker about baseball. Tom’s artwork has or will appear in publications by Cemetery Dance, Dark Discoveries, Champagne Shivers, Insidious Publications, Cargo Cult Press, Bloodletting Press, Infernal House, and—of course—Dark Regions later this year. As if he doesn't have enough to do, he also runs Sideshow Press with his wife, Billie. You can find some of his work in the Dark Regions’ New Voices of Horror books Dark Entities by David Dunwoody and Shades of Blood and Shadows by Angeline Hawkes.

Jeff Strand

 

Jeff Strand is a funny, deeply disturbed individual.
—Jack Ketchum, author of Off Season and The Girl Next Door

Jeff Strand's bio used to mention his cat, but every author mentions a cat in their bio, so he's decided to quit doing it. Fight the power.

He's been writing ever since he was old enough to throw screaming fits in crowded supermarkets, though the quality of his work from that era is questionable. "How to Rescue a Dead Princess" is his silliest book.

If you're looking for something less silly, although not exactly high literature, you may want to try his Andrew Mayhem series: "Graverobbers Wanted (No Experience Necessary)," "Single White Psychopath Seeks Same," and "Casket For Sale (Only Used Once)." Also available is his obligatory 'giant ants attack the world' novel, "Mandibles."

Cemetery Dance magazine said that "No author working today comes close to Jeff Strand's perfect mixture of comedy and terror." They weren't talking about "How to Rescue a Dead Princess."

He checks his e-mail every forty-six seconds, and receiving e-mail from his readers makes him positively giddy. It's almost a little creepy. Write him at your own risk at JeffStrand@aol.com.
