Anne K. Yoder is a staff writer for The Millions. Her fiction and nonfiction has appeared in Fence, Bomb, and Tin House, among other publications. She has received fellowships from the Summer Literary Seminars and The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, where she is currently a student.

David McLoghlin is from Dublin, Ireland. He studies creative writing at New York University, and teaches poetry to long-term patients at Goldwater Hospital. Salmon Poetry will publish his first collection, Waiting for Saint Brendan, in May 2012. He has received several grants and fellowships, both in the USA and Ireland, the most important being the one from the Arts Council of Ireland which let him write full time for a year, and made him pursue his dream of being a writer. Where he belongs most? Close call between Lawrence, Kansas, and Ballyferriter, West Kerry. Favourite bar stool? Eighth Street Taproom, upstairs, under the Beamish poster, just after midnight.
