AboutSebastien de Castell had just finished a degree in Archaeology when he started work on his first dig. Four hours later he realized how much he actually hated archaeology and left to pursue a very focused career as a musician, ombudsman, interaction designer, fight choreographer, teacher, project manager, actor, and product strategist. His only defence against the charge of unbridled dilettantism is that he genuinely likes doing these things and that, in one way or another, each of these fields plays a role in his writing. He sternly resists the accusation of being a Renaissance Man in the hopes that more people will label him that way.Sebastien’s acclaimed swashbuckling fantasy series, The Greatcoats was shortlisted for both the 2014 Goodreads Choice Award for Best Fantasy, the Gemmell Morningstar Award for Best Debut, the Prix Imaginales for Best Foreign Work, and the John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer. His YA fantasy series, Spellslinger, was nominated for the Carnegie Medal and has been translated into more than a dozen languages around the world.Sebastien lives in Vancouver, Canada with his lovely wife and two belligerent cats.

AboutJ. M. Shaw is a Canadian author of fantasy fiction who lives in Alberta with her husband and two young children. She’s been writing since childhood, building worlds from raw imagination and quiet observation, but it took years before she found the courage to share them. For Shaw, storytelling has always been more than a hobby; it’s a passion.In 2019, Shaw was diagnosed with autism and ADHD, a turning point that brought clarity to a lifetime of feeling “too much” or “too different.” Her intense focus, emotional depth, and ability to live inside fictional worlds became not flaws but the superpowers of a neurodivergent mind. These qualities shape her stories, infusing them with realism, heart, and meaning, and giving her the courage to finally share her creative works. Her worlds may be fantastical, but her characters—flawed, searching, and deeply human—resonate on a personal level.When she’s not writing, Shaw enjoys connecting with nature, curling up with a good book, and dreaming up new worlds. She also finds joy in encouraging young writers to pursue their own passions.Followwebsite (www.jmshawauthor.com). Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/jmshawauthor).

Sheila K. Collins PhD believes that, in facing life’s toughest challenges (grief, loss, illness, disabilities, death of a loved one), we mature into who we truly are. Her writing, teaching, speaking, and improvisational artist performances offer thought-provoking insights, embodied practices, and art-based tools to help people deal with what life presents to them. Her award-winning book, Warrior Mother: Fierce Love, Unbearable Loss, and the Rituals that Heal describes her journeys with two of her three adult children and her best friend through their life-threatening illnesses and deaths, and of the rituals that helped her family to heal. Using her background as a dancer, social work professor, therapist, and improvisational performance artist, Dr. Collins demonstrates in her online and in person presentations how art-based tools have helped her and can help others live joyful embodied lives. Her engaging, often humorous 2016 TEDx talk, When Death Threatens Someone We Love demonstrates the challenge of being a caregiver to a loved one dealing with a death-defying illness and the gifts present in such circumstances. Her book for professional and family caregivers revised with co-author Christine Gautreaux in 2018 is Stillpoint: A Self Care Playbook for Caregivers to Find Ease, Time to Breathe, and Reclaim Joy. It contains art-based tools, skills, poems, stories, and embodied practices–providing encouragement and support for caregivers to take care of themselves while taking care of others. Since the pandemic began the two authors have taught a weekly class online based on Stillpoint, attended by caregivers from around the world. Dr. Collins’ latest book is titled The Art of Grieving: How the Arts and Art-Making Help Us Grieve and Live Our Best Lives. Her latest writings are available on https://sheilakcollins.substack.com/
