She met Seth at church and started drawing his characters. A few years later, they married. She still draws his characters and talks him out of his wilder ideas.

Autumn creates digital art under Creative Commons licenses using Krita and Inkscape.

Seth Patterson grew up listening to radio dramas and his mom reading novels from the 1800s. He got his love of writing from his dad, who is an editor. In high school, he completed One Year Adventure Novel. He has been in love with writing fiction ever since.

He studied cybersecurity in college, which taught him how to think like bad guys to defend against them. Thinking like bad guys comes in handy for writing fiction too. He also discovered free software and free culture in college.

Seth writes freely licensed fantasy an science fiction, using nerdy tools like Nano and Markdown.
