Robert Bathurst’s many series on television include Cold Feet, Toast Of London, Downton Abbey, Joking Apart, Emma, Dr Who. His many stage productions include the title role in King Charles lll for the Chicago Shakespeare Theater and he created a stage show with animation, Love, Loss & Chianti, dramatizing two books by the poet Christopher Reid. He has performed seven of Louise Penny’s Inspector Gamache novels for Macmillan Audio, has been nominated for three Audie Awards, winning Best Male Narrator in 2020. He judged the Costa Book of the Year and the BBC Radio Drama Prize and writes for magazines about showbiz and horseracing.

Shane Wilson is a storyteller. No matter the medium, the emphasis of his work is on the magical act of the story, and how the stories we tell immortalize us and give voice to the abstractions of human experience. His first two contemporary fantasy novels, set in his World of Muses universe, are currently available.

Born in Alabama and raised in Georgia, Shane is a child of the southeastern United States where he feels simultaneously at-home and out-of-place. He graduated from Valdosta State University in south Georgia with a Masters in English. He taught college English in Georgia for four years before moving to North Carolina in 2013.
Shane plays guitar and writes songs with his two-man-band, Sequoia Rising. He writes songs as he writes stories--with an emphasis on the magic of human experience. He tends to chase the day with a whiskey (Wild Turkey 101) and a re-run of The Office.

Shane's novels are A Year Since the Rain (Snow Leopard Publishing, 2016) and The Smoke in His Eyes (GenZ Publishing, 2018). Shane's short story, "The Boy Who Kissed the Rain" was the 2017 Rilla Askew Short Fiction Prize winner and was nominated for a 2018 Pushcart Prize. Shane is currently at work on a new novel.
