Name: Pranas Perkunas (pen name)

Pranas Perkunas (pen name) is a writer, musician, and animal rights advocate. He is also working on a novel which he hopes will do very well, for he would like to do much more for animals, like donate substantially to no-kill cat shelters and maybe even bankroll a new one.

Pranas is currently constructing a colossal, Hello Kitty assault robot which will be utilized to effectively deal with wanton animal abusers by stamping them to jelly.

Under his actual name, which will not be revealed here, he has been published in various literary journals such as BLANK GUN SILENCER, SNOW MONKEY, WHISKEY ISLAND, HIDDEN OAK, ETC.

He has also been published on-line in LITERARY EROSION and THE HORROR ZINE.

NAME: Nikaan Matthew

I am a 20 year old student who currently studies Law with Business at Bangor University in North Wales. I grew up in Nottingham, United Kingdom and began writing poetry at the age of 17. At the moment I tend to write around the subject of love and passion but in the future I do hope to be able to expand my subject matter. I never write my poetry on paper and only ever use my laptop to write, whenever I try to write using paper my mind goes blank so I've stopped trying. In the future I hope to publish a collection of poetry entitled 'Droplets of Sunshine' sometime in the future, as well as writing a television sitcom and a fantasy novel, but for now I am just enjoying writing my poetry.

Short Paragraph about the art I do: My art is poetry. Most of my poetry tends to revolve around the themes of love and the different ways in which it can be viewed. When writing I try not to overload on description as I believe that if you let the readers imagination create the images in their head then the poem can have a longer lasting effect. Therefore simplicity is always at the core of everything I write, however I always try to move the reader in a way that they have never felt before.

Name: Jesse James Campen


I am a working student from Maryland, and like to write specifically to entertain. I am currently attending Full Sail University to get my Creative Writing For Entertainment BFA. I like story telling in all forms, including stories from video games and themed music albums.

Right now, the only sort of art I’m involved in is creative writing. More particularly, I like writing sci-fi and fantasy stories, but I’ll settle for anything that makes someone think or laugh too. My technique doesn’t vary from many other writers’. I write a lot, then I edit a lot. One thing is for sure though: I dislike typing, so I write in my pad before typing it all out on my computer.

Anything else: I would like to make it known that I’m in a writing team with my brother, Luke Campen. We’ve got a few movie scripts we’ve been working on, but we would like to change the face of the writing industry as a whole with our stories.
