My name is Ocheni Kazeem Oneshojo. I was born on the 25th of October. I am a poet, playwright, essayist from Nigeria, West Africa. I am from the Northern region Nigeria. I love writing!

I often explore the theme of death, love, pain, agony, peace and social justice. Most of the themes I portrayed in my poems are universal in nature and this tend spread the whole message I want to pass.

Hello! I am Ethan Wang, and I am 20 years old. I am from Pennsylvania, and I am current a University of Virginia student. I am planning on studying marketing with a minor in data science, and I started writing last year for my creative fiction class— this is something I'm new to, so I am glad that people enjoyed my story. It makes me want to continue writing in my free time! Other things that I enjoy are watching movies and making my own short films, photography, music production, exercise, trying new foods, and seeing new places.

Ethan Wang

Hello! My name is Zary Fekete. I grew up in the country of Hungary where I lived until the age of 16. I finished high school and university in the United States and then spent the next 20 years of my life teaching high school students in Eastern Europe and in East Asia. I currently live in Minnesota where I work for a non-profit film production company. I love to read, write, and listen to podcasts while taking long jogs.

My name is Simon Collinson and I'm from England. I like writing stories, especially ones that are Gothic. Sometimes I write poetry. I started writing late in life. After successfully being treated for cancer I decided to start writing those stories that were always in my head.

I like to look at topics from unusual or strange angles. I would like to put across the message that life is not always predictable and that much of life is absurd...
