IVAN FAUTE writes fiction and plays in Chicago. His short stories, novels, plays, microfiction and experimental works often explore the power of memory to persuade and control our lives. Common themes also include the nature of reality and the obsessive desire we have to categorize everything. He is author of the chapbook, This is How We Will Live, Now That We are Free (Rocksaw Press). You can find his work in various literary journals, small run magazines, zines, and occasionally on stage.

MIKE KITCHELL lives in DeKalb, IL, and has stories forthcoming from No Colony, Artifice Magazine, PANK, and Lamination Colony. He has an obsession with killing himself in the ocean and refuses to acknowledge whether or not this obsession is "serious" or "ironic." He documents his presence in the world at http://topologyoftheimpossible.com/.
