Mary Pastrano helps orchestrate the chaos.

And the show would collapse into static and screams without the ongoing work of Karl Hughes, Georgia Triantafyllopoulou, and James Barnett — AKA Jimmy Horrors.

Susan E. Rogers lives in sunny St. Pete Beach, Florida, transplanted from Massachusetts. Her move was the catalyst to focus on her life-long ambition to write. Her other interests include genealogy and psychic spirituality, often twisting these into her writing. She’s published two speculative non-fiction books and an occult thriller. A supernatural mystery is under contract for release in 2024. Starting in 2020, her short fiction has been published in print anthologies and several literary and genre magazines. A complete listing of her work is found at www.susanerogers.com

Erika Ventura is an artist, mother, bilingual narrator, and a painting instructor. How does she manage it all? No idea, but her artwork can be seen on Instagram (@efventu) or you can visit her artist page www.facebook.com/BioArtsy
