Camille Ikalina-Robles
Camille is a music journalist and photographer. When she's not being better at the better blog, she is a concert correspondent for Venuszine where she writes reviews and takes photographs of visiting musical acts. And when she's not doing that, she's tucked away in her dark dungeon of a room attempting to play the guitar, bass, piano, accordion, banjo, xylophone, drums, and the truly sophisticated and mysterious, percussion triangle. For this reason, her roommates leave threatening post-its on her bedroom door.

Craig Elrod and Joshua Krilov
"A few years back, this local Austin magazine asked us to contribute a short story for their fiction issue. We wrote this touching piece about a robot that goes to Spring Break and dies (or whatever) while competing in a wet t-shirt contest. The editor called us 'thick-witted.' So we gave up writing, spent a summer growing white grapes for Portuguese businessmen we met at the post office, and now we make movies."

Francis A. Camaquin
“There are people in this world who smile at jokes they don't think are funny, make small talk with people that they hate, and bob their heads to music they don't really enjoy. The great ones are the ones that you don't know are faking it. I'm always genuine even when I'm faking it.”

Here's me eating a lime. It's supposed to be a visual pun, like Take a
bite out of lime. Whatever. I don't really care. I don't care if you
think it's funny or not, it's not really supposed to be funny, I was
just messing around.
