Ash is a nonbinary trans queer artist whose art sometimes looks like games. See more of those at ashcheshire.itch.io or faer other art @vespertillian on Instagram. Questions, accolades, and cake may be delivered to divinecheshire@gmail.com.
CHRISTIE R FREMON (SHE/HER)
As a person with too many hobbies and just the right amount of loved ones, Christie is always way too busy. But she still makes time to write. When she's not writing, she spends time with her kid and girlfriend and family, does content and game design, knits, lavishes attention on her kitty and carnivorous plants, cooks, plays with fire, and drinks inhuman amounts of tea (monstrous amounts, perhaps). She actually loves all sorts of things others sometimes find monstrous — like spiders, bats, queerness, and neurodiversity. You can find her game design at hypothermya.itch.io and her UX writing and content design thoughts at @typothermya on Twitter.
