Julie Demoff-Larson is one of the founding editors and currently the Managing Editor at Blotterature Literary Magazine. She is the chief organizer and curator of “Small Prestivus,” a two-day annual literary festival aimed at promoting the diversity of small presses and the writers they represent. Julie has a B.A. in English Literature from Purdue University. Her dedication to the writing community is second only to family and friends. Her short stories have been published in Mangrove, Ricochet, Epiphany Magazine and in Good Morning, Justice an anthology from Brine Books Publishing.

Adam McHenry Nicholson is an apostate academic who sometimes makes noises about being some kind of writer or artist or something, but good luck finding much evidence of it. He is currently editing an anthology of strongly visual multimodal narratives for Twelve Winters Press (https://twelvewinters.submittable.com/submit/38543), to which you should submit your work, and is founder and executive director of the nascent Sala Creative Association (igg.me/at/sala), to which you should sumibt your money.
