Wayland Smith is the pen name for a native Texan who has lived in Massachusetts, New York, Washington DC, and presently makes his home in Virginia. His rather unlikely list of jobs includes private investigator, comic book shop owner, ring crew for a circus (then he ran away from the circus and joined home), deputy sheriff, writer, and freelance stagehand. Wayland’s novels so far include In My Brother’s Name, Tools of the Trade, Cadre Clash, and Old Gods and New Drugs, the first two books in the Wildside series. He has short stories in the anthologies Cat Ladies of the Apocalypse, HeroNet Files, Vol. 1, SNAFU: An Anthology of Military Horror, and Misfits of Magic, among many others. He has spoken on panels at Worldcon, DragonCon, DC AwesomeCon, MystiCon, BaltiCon, Philcon, and RavenCon. A black belt in shao lin kung fu, he is also a fan of comic books, reading, writing, and various computer games (I’ll shut 7 Days to Die down in one more hour. Really). He lives with a beautiful woman who was crazy enough to marry him, and the spirits of a few wonderful dogs that have passed on. Weavers Circle imagines a world where everyone feels meaningfully connected. We strive towards this world by gathering around curious, compassionate, and courageous stories. At RavenCon we’re excited to explore how stories impact our lives. Terreal, our visionary founder and blerd, is eager to discuss the emerging subgenre of Solarpunk or GMing tabletop role-playing games. While Courtney, macro social worker and book club host, is wondering how others define visionary fiction or if anyone else reads Stuart Turton. Let’s “Play with Stories” together!

Tempie W. Wade is the award-winning author of the Timely Revolution book series. She writes a wide range of genres including historical fiction and fantasy. Her debut novel, A Timely Revolution, was awarded “Best Historical Fantasy” in the 2019 American Book Fest American Fiction Awards. The author is a lifelong resident of Virginia and currently resides in Williamsburg. Her interests include traveling, visiting museums, and exploring historical sites and ruins. Alexandra Higgins (aka the Platypus Princess) is a self-taught singer/songwriter whose folk-indie sound evokes the spirit of Joan Baez (a direct quote heard randomly and unprompted at every performance!). Her voice, often described as angelic, carries melodies that mix ethereal beauty with sharp wit and compassionate wisdom. Inspired by video games, movies, comic books, and disability advocacy, she blends cosplay, wordplay, and colorful guitar play—with a pinch of sass. Valentine is a published cosplayer, panelist, Twitch streamer, and content creator. She mainly focuses on cosplaying from anime and video games. Utilizing her extensive theater background, she has spent her cosplay career applying tactics and methods she learned to her cosplays as shown through her wig styling, garment making, and her personal favorite, her makeup. She has paneled at multiple conventions up and down the East Coast, her favorite being Galaxycon Raleigh this past summer, where she spoke about using fashion and cosplay as a storytelling device in different animes. Valentine strives to spread love and positivity in the cosplay community, especially lifting up her fellow chronically ill cosplayers.
