Tom Ellison is a writer—the most beta profession—whose humor appears in McSweeney's and the New Yorker. By day he works on climate change and refugee issues, and formerly he was an intelligence analyst and personal trainer. His first book, MAN-THOLOGY, which he ghost wrote for Alpha Chud Buffly, is out 11/10. His YouTube algorithm is a mess.

Amy Fusselman is the author of six books of fiction and nonfiction. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Washington Post, and many other outlets. Her latest book is the novel, Cloud Six.

Caitlin Kunkel is a funny writer, teacher, and speaker. Her first book, New Erotica for Feminists: Satirical Fantasties of Love, Lust, and Equal Pay, was named one of the 10 best comedy books of the year by Vulture. Her second book, Inside Jokes: A Comedy and Creativity Guide for All Writers, is out now from Grand Central.
