Some of his most memorable titles are The Sex Gates, Savage Survival, Alien Infection, The Melanin Apocalypse, Strange Valley, The Pet Plague trilogy and the Williard Brothers series. Darrell served 13 years in the military and his two stints in Vietnam formed the basis for his first published novel, Medics Wild, and the sequels featuring the zany Williard brothers, where the latest book has brought them up to their present day exploits. Darrell has been writing off and on all his life but really got serious about it only after the advent of computers. He purchased his first one in 1989 and has been writing furiously ever since. While Darrell was working as a lab manager at a hospital in Texas, he met his wife Betty. He trapped her under a mistletoe sprig and they were married a year later. Darrell and Betty operated a Christmas tree farm in East Texas for many years, which became the subject and backdrop for many of his humorous stories and books. The Bain family consists of he and his wife Betty and their dachshunds, Tonto and Susie, along with Velcro the cat. They still live on the site of their Christmas tree farm, though it is no longer in business. Darrell is a full time writer now and Betty is retired. They spend most of their leisure time reading.

Bio of Jeanine Berry
Words are Jeanine Berry ' s passion. Perhaps it is genetic since she comes from a family of writers. An avid reader all her life, she started scratching pen to paper at an early age. Once she learned to type, she kept her family awake late at night with the clicking of keys. Eventually, she left home, studied English and journalism and went on to a career as a journalist. The hard-charging, deadline-driven world of journalism left her little time for her own writing. But the desire to put her fantasy worlds down on paper in novel form never left her. When the Internet was born, she was hooked by the idea of ebooks. She dug out one of her old manuscripts from long ago, polished it up and sent it in to an epublisher. Her creative writing career was soon launched. She is now the author of three fantasy novels, and three SF novels, as well as a contributor to two anthologies. Dayspring Destiny, the final book of her Dayspring series, took the 2004 Eppie for best fantasy novel. Jeanine lives in the Chicago area with her husband and two very spoiled Australian Silky Terriers.
Bio of Thomas Farrell
Farrell's first novel, The Jessica Project, was released by PublishAmerica in October 2002. A romantic thriller about a chameleon-like assassin and a beautiful federal agent, The Jessica Project pushes the boundaries of gender identity, and explores the possibility that love might help a person reinvent himself or herself. Skylord, the sequel to The Jessica Project, combines courtroom pyrotechnics, corporate buccaneering, and a world spanning manhunt. Released by PublishAmerica in April 2005, Skylord probes the depths of honor, loyalty and love.
Bio of Diana Hignutt
" Diana Hignutt is "one of America's next great rulers of the fantasy world" (Kristan Ryan, editor, awomanswrite.com). Her novels include the critically acclaimed MOONSWORD, and the recently released, EMPRESS OF CLOUDS."

Excerpt from: Transexual Anthology by Darrell Bain
Denise and I met in a closet the size of my living room. We sat on a sofa, sipped coffee, munched on pizzelles, and chatted about our lives as women, both of us in male mode. The closet was my living room. The closet was her and it was me. Odd thing about closets, we carry them with us, and when they meet up with one another, they become bubbles ' they join, forming a prison-sanctuary for two, for three, for ten, for a thousand, for everyone, for a while. And for this while, we are safe in our seclusion.
"They called me gay, queer, faggot, beat me up, pushed me around a lot."
This is a story of fear, one of sheer terror, but not one of impending violence. Denise's fear is one of recognition. Like the great majority of transvestites, she lives only for a few hours at a time, and she lives in constant fear that those she depends on for her well-being, and those closest to her will one day find her, and when they do ' kill her.
Her story begins in a closet, that of her older sister at their parents' house in Meriden, Connecticut. Small and slight of frame, "Henry", as we'll call her while in male mode, (though I've been asked to withhold all real names), was encouraged by his mother to wear his sister's things.
