Wani Ardy mempunyai obsesi misteri terhadap kord C. Selain itu, Wani Ardy gemar memuntahkan rasa melalui pensil berbanding pen. Ini kerana, pensil lahir dari kayu, kayu lahir dari pokok, dan pokok itu hidup, sepertimana manusia juga hidup, maka kimia antara keduanya lebih mudah terjalin. OK Wani Ardy licik beralasan. http://waniardy.com

"Sharanya Manivannan is the Sri Lankan womanist poet I've been waiting for - a writer with guts and passion and precision, brave enough to tell all the Sri Lankan women's stories that have been needing to be told for too long. Incredibly fierce!" - Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha (Consensual Genocide). http://sharanyamanivannan.blogspot.com/ www.sharanyamanivannan.com

Tshiung Han See got his start in performance poetry at the British Council's now-defunct poetry night Wayang Kata. He has performed at Readings at Seksan's, Pekan Frinjan, Poetry Slam, and Say Goodnight, Twitterverse. His poetry has appeared in the pages of Klue magazine and the British Council poetry chapbook Wellversed. His poetry can also be viewed online at http://hanless.blogspot.com. He hosts the Say Goodnight, Twitteverse open mic night.

Jasmine Low reads short stories she writes and writes short stories of what she reads. http://www.webprojx.com/girl_gungho/story.html
