Steven W Rodgers received his MFA from the University of Virginia, and has nearly 30 years' experience as an editor, satirist, textbook author, newsletter publisher, playwright, arranger, composer, newspaper columnist, and college writing instructor. He has written textbooks, satirical essays, plays and musicals. He wrote and developed an English proficiency exam for new college students, administered to over 10,000 students. He has edited a number of novels and memoirs, medical journal articles, and dissertations and theses on topics ranging from the latest in computer technology to soil composition. Aside from writing and editing, he formats finished works for publishing on Amazon, and designs book covers, using the latest in A.I. software. He has written over 300 songs, including those performed by Broadway and Netflix star Ashley Park (Mean Girls, Emily in Paris). He has also written 5 musicals and a number of comedy plays that have been performed across the country, including a number off-off Broadway productions.
Sara Wren, from London, England, is a writer, musician, film critic and reluctant optimist. She is best known as the voice and mind behind The Apologist’s Parlor, a podcast affiliated with The Edit Authority that filters the world through equal parts sarcasm, scholarship, and scotch. With a background in writing, composition, and the subtle art of saying what everyone else is thinking, she brings literary flair and musical intuition to everything from social commentary to the psychology of favorite colors.
An expert in writing style, word nuance, and tone, Sara has a reputation for pinpointing exactly why a sentence falls flat or a lyric doesn’t sing. She’s worked as a behind-the-scenes stylist for other people’s prose, but these days, she’s just as likely to be dissecting dialogue in 1940s noir or scoring her own short films with haunting jazz. She doesn’t do “content.” She tells stories. Sometimes with a microphone, sometimes with a piano, sometimes with just a well-placed pause. If you’re looking for fluff, look elsewhere. But if you want wit, clarity, and just a hint of menace in your metaphors—Sara Wren has a seat saved for you.
