Join us July 17th from 10am to 2pm for the Moonfall Market!

This week, we’vre hijacking talent from Milwaukee and getting a taste of Tea’s Weird Week with Tea Krulos along with artist David Beyer.

Tea Krulos is a freelance journalist and author from Milwaukee, WI. Some of his favorite subjects to explore include subcultures and social movements, weird news, the paranormal, and strange personalities. He also writes about local art and entertainment, lifestyle, and food/drink for publications like Milwaukee Magazine, Shepherd Express, and Milwaukee Record. His five non-fiction books are American Madness, Wisconsin Legends & Lore, Apocalypse Any Day Now, Monster Hunters, and Heroes in the Night. He’s also been published in magazines like Fortean Times and Scandinavian Traveler and writes a weekly column called “Tea’s Weird Week” at teakrulos.com.

Krulos was awarded a Gold Milwaukee Press Club Excellence in Journalism Award in 2021 in the “short hard news feature” category for an article he wrote for Milwaukee Magazine on “citizen journalists” titled “Reporting Live From the Street.” His book American Madness won the National Indie Excellence Book Award in the “Current Events” category. His book Monster Hunters was a finalist in the 2015 Midwest Book Awards.

And dropping in from the midwest’s comic cons, we’ve got David Beyer! I’d say more but couldn’t find a bio to steal from the internet 😀

Join us July 10th from 10am to 2pm for the Moonfall Market!

This week, we’re jumping into the deep end of self-publishing with author Luke Morris and guest publisher, Dire Need Zine.

Luke Morris is the author of Hello, Halloween (which I illustrated), along with all sorts of other good stuff. Here’s his bio!

When he’s not writing weird fiction, Luke J. Morris teaches high school English and Creative Writing, trains Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, reads comic books and horror novels, and spends time with his wife, five kids, and two cats. He holds a B.A. in Philosophy, an M.A. in Creative Writing, and a black belt in JKD/MMA, which makes him feel undeservedly special. A native of cold Chicago, he now lives in the blistering heat of Phoenix, Arizona. See his weird work at lukejmorris.com

Dire Need Zine inspires to create a platform showcasing underground artworks, poetry, and music to those in the Midwest region. Check out their work at https://www.facebook.com/direneedzine

Join us June 26th from 10am to 2pm with local authors Al Lytle and Toi Blasier with artist Frank Lopez!

Here’s a sneak peek at Al and Toi’s Gate of Divinity series:

After the first war in Heaven, Lucifer’s defeat and banishment was all but definitive. While peace reigned for a millennium, the Father of Lies dwelled in the void of the Pits of Hell. Fueled by vengeance and blinded by his destiny during his imprisonment, Lucifer plotted against those who would stand in his way. Upon his release, Lucifer sets off a series of events that draws the attention of a handful of angels as Heaven remains skeptical of any danger. In an unsanctioned mission to thwart Lucifer’s plans, a small group of angels set off on their own. Do they have the fortitude to endure Hell’s forces and convince Heaven or will Lucifer threaten all of creation?

Guest author and artist events are back for the summer at Studio Moonfall!

Join us June 12th from 10am to 2pm with local author M.P. McDonald and artist Toastradahmus!

M.P. McDonald lives in southeastern Wisconsin. When not writing, favorite pastimes are swimming, reading, and watching baseball and football.

Always fascinated with post-apocalyptic books and movies, M.P. created a virus in 2016 that shares some scary similarities with the pandemic. It’s airborne and those infected still want to socialize because they don’t feel sick, at first.

You can read more about the virus I created in my Sympatico Syndrome Series, and the parallel series, Sympatico Syndrome World.

Get a peek at her books before the event at https://studiomoonfall.com/artistalley/m-p-mcdonald/
