Adrian Meredith, author of A Splintered Soul

Adrian Meredith (1975-) was born in Camberwell in Melbourne’s inner east, and has lived in places as varied as the tropical climes of Darwin, the desert heat of Alice Springs, the farming community of Somerset and the upper class region of Launceston, locations as diverse as they come as far as Australia is concerned. He never writes while he is awake – all of his writing comes from dreams, which he remembers in vivid detail every night, adding a veil to the writing and giving them an other-worldly quality. His writing isn’t easily categorised though generally it fits into the genre of science fiction and/or horror, the kinds of things that they made Twilight Zone episodes about. While they are mostly fictional, they all have a heavy non-fiction basis, just with the veil of dreams added over the top.

Antoinette Corvo, author of Dirges in the Dark & The Ivory Tower
Antoinette Corvo is a writer from Brooklyn, New York. Dirges was first written in 1999, the first book I wrote. With time I grew it up and it became Dirges in the Dark that you see today. I was an opera singer and was taught at the Brooklyn Academy of music but my crippling shyness made me write about an opera singer instead of actually being one as I had hoped. I used to compete and perform till the anxieties kicked in as a teen. I suppose I’d never be a writer if that hadn’t happened. Silver linings.
