Margaret Malone is the host of the literary radio show Bust the Canon on Xray.fm and author of the story collection People Like You, a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award for First Fiction, winner of the Balcones Fiction Prize, and selected as one of the Northwest’s "25 Books to Read Before You Die."

A recipient of grants, fellowships, and residencies from institutions such as MacDowell, the Ucross Foundation, the Ford Family Foundation, Sitka Center, and Literary Arts, Margaret mentors established and emerging writers on their individual projects, in person and online.

This is Tim Joy's first published work since the mid-1980s when a few of his personal narratives appeared in Northwest Magazine, a weekly insert in The Sunday Oregonian.

Tim taught English for 20 years at La Salle High School in Milwaukie and served as an administrator at De La Salle North Catholic High School in northeast Portland for another 21 years. He retired this past June and has been on the road with his bride, hanging out with grandchildren, or sitting under a tree with a book.
