Both are online college instructors in English; JC teaches for Metropolitan State College of Denver, and Barb teaches for the University of Colorado at Denver. Barb's short fiction has appeared in numerous genre magazines and anthologies. She is the author of the novel Blood Memories. JC's poetry, non-fiction, and short fiction have also appeared in many genre magazines.
