John previously worked at Asimov’s, Analog, and Tor Books before returning to school to earn his Master’s in Library and Information Science. He now works full time as a librarian. When he is not conquering the world of indexing, John edits and publishes the Hugo Award-winning genre zine Electric Velocipede. As of 2010, the magazine has also been nominated for the World Fantasy Award four years in a row.

In 2007 John edited an anthology of science fiction and fantasy stories based on spelling-bee winning words called Logorrhea: Good Words Make Good Stories. In 2011, he edited Happily Ever After, an anthology of retellings of fairytales for Night Shade Books. He and his family live in the Midwest.

Anne Zanoni, Managing Editor

Anne loves words and has the best job ever—copy-editing books. Part of EV since autumn 2008, she discovered that working for multiple ‘zines was a bit wearing, and shifted down to only two ‘zines (from four) when more book-jobs came her way. She lives in the Great Lakes region of the Midwest and is looking for some interesting hobbies.

Damien Walters Grintalis, Associate Editor

Damien lives in Maryland with her husband, two former shelter cats, and two rescued pit bulls. She is a member of both the Horror Writers Association and the Science Fiction & Fantasy Writers of America, and her debut novel, Ink, will be released in December 2012 from Samhain Horror.

Jamie Lackey, Assistant Editor

Jamie, the newest addition to the EV team, grew up in Stoneboro, PA. She currently lives in Pittsburgh with her wonderful and talented husband, and their cat, Zuko.

Jamie writes science fiction, fantasy, and horror short stories.  In her spare time she reads slush for Clarkesworld Magazine. Jamie worked as an assistant editor for the Triangulation Annual Anthology Series from 2008-2010, and she was one of the magazine’s two coeditors in 2011.
