Bronwyn Averett
Bronwyn Averett is a student of French and Comparative Literature at the University of Georgia, where she also works (of course) in a home-grown, Athens coffeeshop. Her journalistic work in French has been featured on Stopinfos.com but she is brand new to the fiction scene. When she is not making skinny, decaf, sugar-free vanilla lattes, she can be found studying within an inch of her life and greatly perturbing the collegiate bureaucracy by exercising her right to Freely Speak and asserting the right of all to Freely Learn.

Bosaiya
We have come to see the world as devoid of mystery, and with these images I hope to restore some sense of wonder about the world around us. There was once a greater sense of mystery in the world sailors of long ago would tell tales of mysterious beasts in uncharted areas of the flat Earth. Hand-drawn maps had vast areas marked as “Unknown” and the darkest corners were marked with the wondrous phrase, “Here there be Dragons.”

I do not consider myself to be a macro photographer—I am a fine art portrait photographer who happens to photograph very small and unusual subjects. Even though my passion is for my Angels & Insects collection I do other photography as well including photos for local theater and more traditional fare. One of my landscape shots was just selected by Oregon State University for inclusion in a spring gallery show on Art in Agriculture,where it won the President's Award.

Luke Buckham
Luke Buckham is a periodically homeless person who writes every day to keep the world from disappearing. His favorite vegetable is the artichoke, and his favorite fruit is the pomogranate. He is irritated with the cowardice of the pre-planned apocalypse. He does believe that almost everything is incredibly interesting once you shake it just a little bit. And that mankinds's biggest denial lies in its reluctance to notice how good life actually is. His chapbook, Moonlight on Moloch, is being published by Unlikely 2.0.

Anna Varshavsky
Anna Varshavsky is making her debut in Outsider Ink. She has taken taken four years not only to polish her craft before beginning the submission process, but to compile a collection of fiction and erotica shorts. Currently, she has over twenty stories ready for publication and is working on perfecting a full length novel. The focus of her writing are the characters. Their portrait is painted within every story and ultimately that is her goal: to make each character embody the reader. The recurring element throughout the collection is isolation of self ‹ being a willing prisoner inside the mind, becoming an observer, a voyeur of life for fear of living it. There is humor, but on a darker level. Anna studied writing at The New School in New York from 1999-2005. To support her writing habit, Anna works as an art director for an advertising firm.
