Chandler is a ginger who fights the stereotypes; she claims to have a soul for every freckle. One can usually find Chandler in her natural habitat of a good book and a hot cup of chai tea, or wandering a forest trail; though she has been known to ride around town on her motorcycle from time to time. She believes in the art of escapism, which translates to avoiding the laundry with said good book and chai in hand. She enjoys bad puns almost as much as she enjoys food. She revels in the feel of spring sunshine on her face, and the scent of wood smoke in the air.
Chandler graduated from Marshall University with a BA in English, Creative Writing, in 2015. She is an editor for The Henlo Press.

Haydn Conner- Jr. Book Coach
Haydn is an entity of unwritten daydreams and controversial chaos, of collector jars and mossy rocks. He's an adventurer without a destination and a compass pin that only points at steel water bottles. One can usually find him rescuing bugs, painting trees, tending to his plants, or yelling "squirrel" like the dog from Disney's Up. Haydn is fueled by 2:00 a.m. "get your life together" revelations, quotes written in the margins of library books, and a passionate refusal to accept the normative narrative.
Haydn graduated from Eastern Kentucky University in 2022 with a BA in English with a focus in creative writing and has been featured in five publications.
