Some of my SF pals:

meerkat She's Executive Editor at Roc Books (the SF imprint of Penguin USA), a professional writer, Con Mommy of the notorious Phile Cabinet, noted X-phile, and author of some highly recommended fan fiction. We give you meerkat, troublemaker extraordinaire... Debra Doyle and Jim Macdonald Authors of the Mageworlds books, among others. Two sharp minds -- follow this link for Jim's famous media reviews or life in the North Country. Debra does a mean analysis of Anglo-Saxon and medieval literature, and she's not that bad with the contemporary stuff, either. Katherine Lawrence Writer of both animation and live-action television, author of short stories, woman of cool jewelry. Follow this link for more of life in Hollywood. eluki bes shahar/Rosemary Edghill Eluki Knows Books. Author of the Hellflower novels (sf with a kick), as Rosemary Edghill she's also written Regency romances, mysteries (the Bast series, about a contemporary witch), and fantasy (the Twelve Treasures series -- elves with an attitude). She also knows more about the Napoleonic era than any human has a right to know. Follow this link to a woman in an unarguable position to tell you about what Edward Gorey's Mr. Earbrass calls "the exquisite horror of the literary life." Keith DeCandido and Marina Frants Keith (aka "Bongo Boy") is an editor at Byron Preiss Visual Publications, a drummer to be feared, a member of the Don't Quit Your Day Job Players, a writer of various short stories, and he can make a pretty mean spaghetti sauce, too. Marina, his lovely-and-more-talented wife, is a writer, photographer, programmer, scuba diver, and native speaker of Russian. Between them I think they've got all the bases covered. Follow this link to madness (and be sure not to miss "Dead Kitchen Radio"). Christy Marx A woman with her own domain name is a woman to be reckoned with. At the other end of this link you will find a writer, photographer, web designer, and the caretaker of the notorious Moggy Horde. The artwork of the late Peter Ledger is also on display and may be ordered.
