Weekly Artist

Name: Glenda Jane Grande
Aka: tsukitenshi, angellusion, angel
Website: www.angellusion.com

Filipina by blood and heritage, Australian on the birth certificate – I’m a lover of everything that is unusual yet beautiful, or just simply beautiful. My interests are as widespread as the skies we live under and I believe in living freely.

My childhood dream was to become an angel – I wanted to be someone who could help protect people. While I can’t grow wings, I can write with my heart.

I have loved writing stories for as long as I can remember, but I started turning it as an emotional outlet at the age of 13. Since then, I haven’t stopped and have continued to use writing as my release.

Aside from writing, I also love to sing, dance and play video games. Some people think I’m a little crazy, but that’s ok, because what’s life if you don’t take the risks?

My writing is far from structured and I don’t think I show any particular technique, but what I do try to do is to paint a picture within each reader’s mind and evoke emotion from the heart. Sometimes I rhyme, usually I don’t. The aim of my prose and poetry is to remind everyone that because we are human, it is alright to feel the various emotions that we do, whether it is love, heartbreak, sadness, anger, pain or happiness. I write to remind that we are not alone in world when we feel such things – each feeling has a lesson to teach us.

Status: Independent
Anything else: I still want to be an angel!

Name: Earl S. Wynn
AKA: E.S. Wynn

E.S. Wynn is the author of over forty books (Pink Carbide trilogy, The Cygnus War series in print, Beyond Oblivion and a Modern Creative Writer's Workbook) the chief editor of a number of weekly magazines (Weirdyear, Smashed Cat Magazine, Farther Stars Than These, Flaming Filmreel, and Yesteryear Fiction) designer and voice actor for all 10 discs of the Meditations for the Soul series, as well as the owner of Thunderune Publishing.

He has been teaching creative writing courses, building websites, exploring creative expression, administrating magazines, writing books, guiding meditations, practicing reiki and teaching multi-cultural shamanic classes since 2005.

As a writer, I pride myself on both the speed and quality of my work. I'm always writing (literally) grabbing every spare second I can to scribble down the ideas for (or new lines of) any given project I'm working on. As a creative person in general, I dabble in pretty much anything I come across that I find interesting. Von Singer Aether & Steamworks features my forays into Steampunk and modeling, Wynnstock features my attempts at photography, and Wynn Originals is where I stash my paintings and other woodburnt art.


Education: B.A. in English Education.

Likes: Creative people, positive thinkers, long walks on the beach with Dez, cyberpunk, steampunk, Firefly, books, Storm Constantine, computers, internet, games, dogs, ducks, art cars, techno, classic rock, succulents, poetry.

Dislikes: Pessimists, sunburns, socks, poverty, snobbery, frowns.

Status: Currently married in spirit, soon to be married by law. (Married by law on May 21, 2012.)
