Ashley Rich

Ashley lives in Northern California with her husband, teenage son, three cats, and a giant rottweiler. When she's not herding the animals, she's busy in the kitchen, cooking up something spicy or kneading together a loaf of sourdough (it's so good, we thought of offering it as the first place prize). On the side, Ashley co-runs her husband's construction business. While she can't swing a hammer, she's always happy to crack that whip.

Eric Halpenny

Eric Halpenny is an engineer by day, an author by night. He loves to create interesting worlds and discover the characters who inhabit them. He is often inspired in the middle of the night or while driving home from work. He is anticipating the publication of a short novel Qui est Elise, a French learner novel through TPRS, in 2024, and he self-published a collection of short stories entitled Thread and Other Stories in 2017. He lives in Northern California with his wife and three children. One of his favorite quotes is from Les Misérables by Victor Hugo: "To learn to read is to light a fire." He hopes his writing will inspire a love for reading in others.

Kaitlynn Price

My name is Kaitlynn and I have loved reading and writing all my life. I have a Master’s degree in English, Literature from Chico State University and I specialize in Victorian Literature. My published thesis, “Psychoanalysis and Social Anxieties: A Comprehensive Analysis on the Governess” is centered around the novel Jane Eyre and Charlotte Bronte’s personal life. I argue that Governess work and life in the nineteenth century was a distressing occupation for young women and how societies perceptions of her were nothing short of the truth about her line of work. When I’m not reading and writing, I am a substitute teacher and work in retail. I am a huge Star Wars nerd and Darth Vader is the greatest villain of all time. My hobbies other than reading and writing include golfing, running, building Lego’s, spending time with my family and boyfriend, and buying more books to feed my addiction. My dog Ella is my favorite character.
