Into the Dust: The Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781475154016)

About the Author: Ren Cummins The adventure began around the time a few astronauts were nancing about on the moon. There may have been off-roading, there may have been golf; but all I saw was one giant leap for mankind. I was reading comic books and dreaming of when I'd get to grow up to be Spiderman. The tales of heroes, old and new, infected my otherwise somber way of thinking, and what came out on the other side resolved itself into a love of adventure. I wish I could tell you that it was a direct path from then until now, but I've embraced the tangents of my life as fodder for material, from such relatively mundane (and disassociated) occupational interruptions like working as a hotel manager, music studio engineer, Middle Eastern drummer for bellydancers, and a crisis response manager. I've even picked up a few foreign languages, which fed right back into my love of English. Rumors persist that I may have invented some sort of time machine. But... that's another story for another time. See what I did there? Heh. * * * * * About the Author: Kiri Callaghan Kiri Callaghan was born a "3rd" on a station set in deep space where she was trained in the ways of the Jedi. Her training concluded when she joined a crew of smugglers piloting a Firefly class ship that tended to travel to new worlds and new civilizations. In her travels, she battled darkspawn, saved countless princesses, ruled kingdoms, acquired some phat lootz, and was pretty much in short, the 'chosen one.' She may also really just be a writer obsessed with sci-fi, fantasy, books, and gaming, an actor and director with a BFA in Theater from Cornish College of the Arts and an amateur clothing designer and seamstress. But that's just a rumor, and you really shouldn't listen to those. "Bard" by name, she has dedicated her life to storytelling through multiple mediums, whether it be by stage, film, photography, song or written word.
