(Returning) Miranda McTier
Canadian Paranormal Writer
Hello. I'm Miranda McTier. I'm a mom of three and had been writing as a hobby for most of my young life. I stopped for a while to have a family, but I started again 2021. Since then, I've been having a great time creating a world in my head and putting it into words. My world centers around wolf shifters, but is constantly expanding with every book I write. I do have a job outside as a steel press operator, and having fun with my family is a favorite pass time. I do love creativity and sharing it with everyone. I'm so happy to meet people and see what their creative minds think up. So, nice to meet all of you, and I can't wait to see what you have.
(Returning) J. Alleyn Winchester
Literary & Spiritual Fantasy Author
J. Alleyn Winchester is the author of Artemis of the Dodekatheon and Nature Calls, Spring. Listening to his father play on his guitar before reading bedtime stories from the Children’s Book of Virtues, Aesop’s Fables, or The Chronicles of Narnia was a beloved bedtime ritual. He fell in love with how myth and lore shaped generations of cultures and studied storytelling from literary, theatrical, and spiritual perspectives from a young age. They inspired him to write his own tales, starting with one page shorts that would grow into a few chapters. In middle school, he found that stories helped him navigate the complexities of growing up with depression, anxiety, and alternative world views. When he was sixteen, he began developing three, far-reaching series that would later be called The Triad Sagas, two of which were Dodekatheon and Nature Calls. He married his high school sweetheart and muse who shares his love of storytelling with their feline familiar, Archibald. Together, they hope the Imaginings Universe plants new seeds of inspiration in the hearts and minds of generations now and to come.
(Returning) Clive Britton
Thriller Writer
I based my first novel ‘Some are evil’ on a period in my late twenties when my other identity first revealed itself. At the time, I thought it was the alcohol that caused me to stray from the boundaries of normality, and I’m sure it helped by suppressing the anxieties that might have stopped the – somewhat warped adventures from actually playing out.
The thing that did help the spirit inside me to immerge was the shelter from the stage; after all – we are but the actors in somebody else’s play… We have to live up to the identities on the script, but off stage – in a secret wilderness – away from the audience, anything is possible.
My childhood years were troubled… My father died when I was fifteen after a long battle with his demons, and my mother suffered from severe depression, I remember the worry of whether she would still be alive when I got home from school or if she had managed to play out the deed that she yearned for. I spent my early teenage years in a my-own depressed state.
