Bonnie is a former BBT "groupie" from way back when Issue One was the only issue available. She attached herself to former senior editor, Lucien, and his crew like a parasite and has been here ever since. (They have never quite got over the shock.) In her free time, she writes under the pen name of D. S. Knight, attends The College of the Sacred Mists, works at her local food co-op, raises a three year old orclet, and reads voraciously. In her community she is known as 'that weird girl who works at the co-op and lives at the bookstore'. Some of her fiction and ramblings can be found at http://dsknight.com.

Patience Wieland insists she's a transplanted Midwesterner, even if some of her neighbors today don't believe Michigan is part of the Midwest! Having lived in seven very different climates over a ten year period - six U.S. states and one Canadian province - she's interested in how place shapes perception. Today, she lives in a gem of a city - somewhat unfairly described as "Los Angeles traffic with the weather of Calcutta" - Houston, Texas. She runs a small business dedicated to classic film, audio drama and genre television. Her written credits include Strange Horizons, Parting Gifts, Montreal Gazette, Neon Beam (UK), The Aurorean, and a series for the Old California Gazette, where she won a San Diego Press Club award.
I currently reside in London where I was born and raised by a dysfunctional Irish-Catholic family and any number of cheap Horror flicks and Spaghetti Westerns. I have spent most of my working life dabbling in Pharmacy and some years ago this took me to New Zealand where I met my beautiful wife. I presently work for a Medical Information company where I pretend to know a lot about things like patents and intellectual property and drink a lot of tea. I recently had an epiphany when I realised that the first step to realising my dream of becoming a writer was to, you know, write something.
