Siri Pettersen

Siri was born in 1971, under the northern lights of Norway, with a severely overactive imagination. It survived countless attacks from the outside world, rendering her an expert escapist, frolicking in a wide range of media: Design, web, comics, illustration, animation and text. Anything for a good story. In 2002 she won a national comic contest with "Anticlimax", the comic strip that made her "Newcomer of the year" in the Norwegian Sproing Awards. Siri has worked as an Art Director for many years, but she is now writing full time, devoted to her fantastical worlds.

Oskar Källner

Oskar Källner uppslukades av den fantastiska litteraturen redan som 9-åring då han närmast maniskt läste Jules Verne. Därefter slukades allt som gick att komma över av Isaac Asimov, Robert A. Heinlein, Arthur C. Clarke och C. J. Cherryh.

Oskar är lika fascinerad av folksagor och myter som av astrofysik. I sitt författande blandar han ofta spekulativa idéer med snabb aktion och existentiella frågor.

Han har givit ut flera fantasyromaner, en hästscience fiction-bok, två bilderböcker för barn och ett stort antal noveller. Sina noveller har han också vunnit flera priser för. Han är publicerad på flera språk, senast i det amerikanska SF-magasinet Future SF. Utöver detta är han engagerad i SF-Sverige och deltar regelbundet i skrivarpodden Fantastis

Helena Waris (s. 1970) vietti lapsuutensa Pohjois-Karjalassa, ja muutti 13-vuotiaana Kiteeltä Mikkeliin, jossa kirjoitti ylioppilaaksi 1990. Esikoisromaani oli jo tuolloin työn alla, mutta tarvittiin puutarhurin opinnot ja pätkätyöt niin yrttitarhan opaskierrosten vetäjänä kuin hautaustoimiston apulaisenakin, sekä lyhyt ura käsityöläisyrittäjänä ja pidempi kotiäitiys ennen kuin aika oli kypsä Uniin piirretylle polulle.

Suurimmat sysäykset kirjan toteutumiselle ovat jäljitettävissä Oriveden Opistoon, Mikkelin Kirjoittajiin ja MTV3:n Suureen Seikkailuun. Waris asuu Ristiinassa 100-vuotiaassa puutalossa. Uusperheeseen kuuluu 4-7 lasta ja 2 koiraa. Hänen sydäntään lähellä ovat maatiaiskasvit, kansanperinne, remontointi, rock-musiikki ja leivonna

Robert Pilch

Vyrůstal jsem v prostředí, které bylo fantastikou přímo nasáklé. Není divu, oba rodiče byli před rokem 1989 aktivní scifisté, takže byla jen otázka času, kdy se nakazím i já.

Začalo to nenápadně, dětskými knihami s fantastickými motivy (Bulyčevovu Alenku s Malákovými ilustracemi mám dodneška rád), seriálem Návštěvníci, Verneovkami, komiksy z Abíčka, pokud se je podařilo sehnat…

Největší zlom ale nastal, když jsem na toaletě našel mámou rozečtené Heinleinovy Dveře do léta. Z toho záchodu jsem pak nevylezl pěkně dlouho… Ale nesmím zapomenout ani na Součka. Jsem jeden z těch, kteří mu první díl Cesty slepých ptáků sežrali i s navijákem.

A polská televize, půlnoční víkendový program „Noční kino“. Predátor, Terminátor, Vetřelci, Hvězdné války… Kdo

H.S. Gilchrist

H.S. Gilchrist’s ambitions of becoming a real-life Indiana Jones (degree in Anthropology) seeded her love for world cultures and history but conjured no realistic job prospects. So, she set aside the thrill of chasing ancient curses for the rigors of a twenty-year career in information technology, where she’s worked as both a technician (“I fix broken stuff”) and a data analyst (“I save management a lot of work”).

Outside of work, she grooms her daughter into becoming a fellow nerd (it’s sort of working) and, whenever a quiet moment takes her, she writes the adventures she wishes she could live.
