E. Leone, who writes a weekly humorous column about food and life for the San Francisco Bay Guardian; Justine Musk, author of dark-fantasy novels including Blood Angel; Susan O’Neill, writer of nonfiction and fiction with a book of short stories Don’t Mean Nothing: Short Stories of Vietnam; and Katharine Weber author of several novels, her most recent is Triangle.
