Buy Romance here! David de Young recently completed an MFA with NYU’s low residency creative writing program in Paris. He’s the proprietor of a small independent publisher, Nordic Moon Press. He lives in Finland with his wife and three children. At 17, Junix Seraphim started their first over-the-table work as a bookseller at Barnes & Noble in the mall. When that wasn't enough to pay their rent, bills, and put themselves through community college, they moved to Powell's where they also worked as a bookseller. Today, Junix is a poet, drag king, and grassroots organizer fighting for the rights and livelihoods of Filipinos in the homeland and in the belly of the beast, the U.S. Their love of goth culture and black lipstick is reflected in his drag performances, which range from campy character drag to macabre explorations of his personal relationship with death, and the relationships with death held by their communities. Junix and their friends are actively shaping the transsexual future. Theme music is "Take Me Higher" by Jazzhar.
