Frog and Esther married in 2002. For a decade, they swore not to read anything the other wrote, lest catastrophe befall their marriage. Then, the stars aligned in the heavens. In a moment foretold by prophets, they broke their own rule. The result is their critically-acclaimed Gift of Grace urban fantasy series. Since then, they spend their free time watching anime, playing board games, and writing. Their short stories can also be found in several high-profile anthologies, such as Straight Outta Deadwood published by Baen books, and alongside Brandon Sanderson, David Farland, and Todd McCaffery in Dragon Writers published by WordFire Press.
