Owner and operator of the Eposic publishing imprint, MK (Mike) Eidson wrote his first speculative fiction tale in fourth grade. He has served as game master for countless RPG sessions, running games in dozens of rules systems, often converting scenarios written for one system to run in another. He's now happily combining his passions for speculative fiction and role-playing in the creation of GameLit / LitRPG novels, hoping to find readers who can appreciate his unfettered and unhinged style.
Mike lives in Central Florida with his wife and their pet Jack Russell Terrier, where they enjoy casual strolls around the neighborhood and nearby parks.
Mike also enjoys creating games, number & letter puzzles, digital art, and videos. He creates electronic music as a member of the electronic music act, Max Gumdrop.
An extreme introvert, Emila H (Emilah) Thicke sold her first speculative fiction story at the age of seventeen, featuring a time-traveling heroine named Susie McKenzie, based in part on Emilah herself. Her submission led to her meeting her co-author, who introduced her to T&T, GURPS, and other role-playing games.
For a number of years, Emilah was known as Arlene in the WarTune MMORPG. When not writing or editing, Emilah enjoys creating digital art and 3D animations. As a member of Max Gumdrop, she creates digital sounds for inclusion in their music. She lives in Central Florida with her significant other, not far from her co-author. She's glad to have him as a father figure, never having known her real one.
