Michele Graf
A writer, editor, and eclectic reader of poetry, fiction, essays, and just about anything with words, Michele views life in images and vivid colors, with intense emotions and curiosity.
As a child, she convinced her parents there were monsters lurking in her room; she slept with a nightlight from the time she was quite young. Her parents didn’t realize she needed the light to read to the monsters.
She and her husband spent ten years living and traveling in a motorhome all over the US and Canada. The working title of her image-filled book about the journey is Heart, Soul, and Rough Edges.
She’s Poetry Editor for the award- winning e-zine, Apollo’s Lyre (http://apollos-lyre.tripod.com/) and chief crazy-maker who made publication of the Lifelines Anthology a reality.

Margaret Fieland
Born and raised in New York City, Margaret Fieland has lived in the Boston area since 1978. She is an avid science fiction fan, and selected Robert A. Heinlein's “Farmer in the Sky” for her tenth birthday, now long past. In spite of earning her living as a computer software engineer, she turned to one of her sons to put up the first version of her website, a clear indication of the computer generation gap. Thanks to her father's relentless hounding, she can still recite the rules for pronoun agreement in both English and French. She can also write backwards and wiggle her ears. Her poems have appeared in journals such as Melusine, Front Range Review, and All Rights Reserved. She is one of the Poetic Muselings. Their poetry anthology, Lifelines, was published by Inkspotter Publishing in November, 2011. She is the author of Relocated, Geek Games, and Broken Bonds, published by MuseItUp Publishing, and of Sand in the Desert, a collection of science fiction persona poems. A chapter book is due out later this year.
