When he is not online he is doing considerably less geeky things like reading comic books and watching Battlestar Galactica.

Erin Jameson

Erin Jameson is the snarkiest nice girl you will ever meet in your entire life. She likes things like pink hair barrettes and "fashion" sneakers and Jane Austen books and 90's power-pop. She owns more Hello Kitty stuff than is remotely appropriate for a 26 year old and really isn't too concerned about what that means. She dislikes people thinking that everything has to mean something and rain more than three days in a row and when all the radio stations are playing commercials. She lives in a suburb in the Midwest with her husband and herd of cats. She likes that stuff, too.

Ash Aiwase

Ash Aiwase is currently Texiled in one of the Greatest Cities in the USA. When he's not listening to the world's newest tunes or drinking some of the country's finest libations, he can be found in San Francisco's Sunset District, writin' funny books (with some of the area's best writers) and lookin' forward to tomorrow's hangover. You can follow Ash obsessively on Twitter, if you're so inclined.

Julian Solis

Born and raised in sunny Mexico and currently living in chilly Canada, Julian spends his free time reading or sketching over a cold pint, visiting used book stores (to the point that going to a chain bookstore almost feels like cheating,) checking out new events around the city and watching a select number of TV shows or spreading the good word about any of the aforementioned activities.
