Susan Yount was raised on a 164-acre farm in Southern Indiana where she learned to drive a tractor, harvest crops, feed chickens and hug her beloved goat, Cinnamon.

While attending Kent State University, she worked at the largest flour mill in northeast Ohio. She and her husband recently moved and built a home on the south side of Chicago.

Osiris Khepera is an itinerant hermit tripping frequently on the line betwixt genius and insanity on purpose just to see what it does to people. Just Kiddin. I'm a guy. I do stuff. I like words, pictures, and shiny fabrics. Sundays need to come three times a week and I miss Fats Waller. Is that enuff? I get confused... Oh Look!
