Aleksandra Kamila Krzywicka

A Polish-born Wisconsin writer with a Master’s in Teaching and an MFA in Creative Writing.

Julia Rowlen

A Wisconsin author who writes spicy romance and gory horror—not together (yet). Fourteen of her short stories have been produced by horror podcasts NoSleep and Creepy Pod. If horror is her first love that she occasionally meets for wild flings, romance is her happily- ever-after (it’s a “why choose” kind of thing).

Books 1 & 2 of her debut romance series Forever Youngs were released independently on 7/14/26. She lives in Green Bay with her hubby, son, and brigade of furry morons who are always underfoot. When she isn’t writing she’s probably reading Lucy Score in search of her next book boyfriend, finding excuses to go to town for an iced latte, or offending her TBR by

buying more books…again.

A Milwaukee-based author and chemical engineer who writes children’s herb stories and fantasy fiction. For five years, she has hosted the Actually Writing Writers Weekend through the Flying Typewriter Society, helping writers connect, learn, and grow. Her creative and entrepreneurial experience also includes owning a bar and hosting an Airbnb.
