Angie
Arlia is a person with too much time on her hands. She's often wondering
why people do what they do and what makes them tick. She's also
baffled by why people don't speak and write correctly. In her spare
time, she loves to read, watch movies, write letters, spend time
with her dog, Bonnette, and re-enact scenes of misunderstanding
reminiscent of 'I Love Lucy' fame with her Mexican husband, Guillermo.

Amy
Bangerter has a Ph.D in English from the George Washington University,
obtained while teaching cranky undergraduates how to write a proper
sentence at 8am. She currently teaches American literature at the
American University in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates, where
she lives with her husband and three sons.

Beal enjoys doing anything in the kitchen except chopping onions.
She is an avid reader and writer, and likes to do 'creative things'
like make up new recipes in her spare time. She currently lives
in Abu Dhabi, UAE with her husband and two children.

Melissa
Busse is a dog-lover that owns a cat, a ballerina with 4WD and a
political junkie with an insatiable appetite for books and documentaries.
She makes her living as the Employee Wellness Coordinator for a
hospital system in central Virginia but knows in her heart she was
meant to be a river rafting guide. |

Rachel
Morrissey is a cynical optimist, who wasted years getting a BFA
in theater and a BA in history instead of being disciplined and
getting a masters in anything. She likes to act, write, read, cook,
ruminate, and tell stories about everything. She thought about
getting a dog, but scared it would force her into adulthood, she
got
an aloe vera plant instead. She calls it "plant". |

Marni
Myers is a government lackey who enjoys exhaustive travel around the
world, shopping at Crate and Barrel, and reading Oprah's magazine.
In her spare time, she studies new languages and bakes chocolate-chip
cookies, using the recipe that won her a blue ribbon at the county
fair when she was 7. Marni is, sadly, no longer 31.

she studies mostly French and English, as well as the occasional cinema
appreciation course. She is the author of numerous essays and research
papers, including several pieces published in her high school's literary
magazine. |

Amanda
Toronto is graduate student in the English Department at New York
University. She has been in school for far too long, but she knows
this is the year all will be wrapped up. Or maybe next. Amanda lives
in New York City with her husband where they spend most of their free
time trying to answer the question, "What do you want to eat?" |
