Tegan Moore
Tegan Moore spends a lot of time thinking about animals, the inherent weirdness of being, the future, and the end of the world so she tends to read and write fiction about those things as well. She lives in Seattle and is a graduate of Clarion West, class of 2015.

Nora Potwora spends most of her time drawing a lot of various things. She jumps from darkness to light, from pensiveness to happiness—and sometimes even childishness. Her art appears on the cover of Kristen Koller's "The Dragon's Storm Trilogy: Swallowed By Madness." She's currently working as a freelance artist, sitting in her burrow somewhere in Poland.

Once I’ve finished writing, I will fold this letter up and tuck it into the Tristram you kindly loaned me (may it be our Galeotto … ). I’ll knock on your door, at which point I will most likely encounter a puzzled maidservant, who will ask who in the world I am, and I will explain that I am returning a book you were kind enough to bestow on me (generous creature that you are and clearly down-on-their-luck weatherworn would-be poet that I am).
the trees were softening, their bark for the hungry to scrape and scrape and spread it on whatever bread they could beg or bake
i must warn you before all else / before you poke and prod
Paul Kincaid and Dawn Macdonald join Dan Hartland to discuss style.
