Devon Elizabeth Bryce (BA, MA, BEd)
I'm a teacher at an Outreach School, where I spend my days convincing people that 'alot' isn't a word, having engaging conversations about books, and spreading the joy of good grammar. In my off hours, I enjoy trail running and eating Oreos, though not usually at the same time. My caffeine of choice is Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. I believe that true learning is messy and sometimes uncomfortable, which, really, describes many aspects of my life.

I'm a gender fluid / non conforming illustrator who writes and illustrates a web-comic called Digital Ninja, which is an LGTBQ themed hard dystopian cyberpunk

Linh Lu
Linh currently works for the Pride Centre of Edmonton as the Youth Outreach Coordinator, and in the past has run various queer groups and been apart of even more organizations, focusing recently on the intersections between racial justice and gender justice. Linh's passion for comics was sparked by superheroes inspiring and dreaming of a better tomorrow. Linh likes to rant about publishing, comics and diversifying who we staff, not just who's on the page.
