    Author

    Andrew Heller

    Andrew J. Heller is a retired criminal defense attorney who has written (or committed) three alternate histories, one about the First World War (Gray Tide in the East), a sequel (Gray Tide 2:Tidal Effects), and one in which the Confederacy won the Civil War (If the North Had Won the Civil War). He has several Oz credits (or debits, depending on your point of view), including the near-universally ignored Giant Chinchilla of Oz, is the co-author (with L. Frank Baum,) of King Rinkitink  (Baum, in his grave since 1919, seemed to be okay with it,) and is responsible for several other Oz stories which have mercifully faded during his second childhood (or possibly his  third; he can't remember which.) Mr. Heller is the father of two adult children and a chinchilla, and now divides his time between raising Madagascar Giant Hissing Cockroaches in his basement for the international disgusting bug trade, folding himself up inside a sofa-bed while pretending to be an astronaut in the Mercury space program, and trying to erase old television jingles commercials that are currently occupying the majority of his cerebral cortex. Emily McLaughlin is an author and illustrator, specializing in digital illustration. She is the author of Sionnach Abu: Fox Forever, a Celtic fairytale picture book funded by a successful Kickstarter campaign. She has also illustrated for the children's educational series The Puppy Passport. Currently she is in the process of earning a BFA at Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia (PAFA). Illustration and books are her passion. For business inquiries, please contact her at emclau24@gmail.com. She would love to illustrate your book or creative project!
