My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic series has been created with fans old and young alike in mind! So giddy-up, reader, as we return to the land of Equestria with a whole series of never-before-seen adventures for Twilight Sparkle, Pinkie Pie, Fluttershy, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Rarity! Seanan McGuire was born in Martinez, California, and is the author of the October Daye urban fantasies, the InCryptid urban fantasies, the Wayward Children series of YA fantasy novellas, and several other works both stand-alone and in trilogies or duologies. In case that wasn't enough, she also writes under the pseudonym "Mira Grant." Most people believe she doesn't sleep. Seanan was the winner of the 2010 John W. Campbell Award for Best New Writer, and her novel Feed (as Mira Grant) was named as one of Publishers Weekly's Best Books of 2010. In 2013 she became the first person ever to appear five times on the same Hugo Ballot. Seanan lives in an idiosyncratically designed labyrinth in the Pacific Northwest, which she shares with her cats, Alice and Thomas, a vast collection of creepy dolls and horror movies, and sufficient books to qualify her as a fire hazard.Amy Mebberson is a professional comic artist, illustrator, toy designer, and fine artist specialising in all-ages properties. Amy is most well-known for her work for the Walt Disney Company and its licencees, including Hasbro, Hachette Book Group, Justplay, and comics with BOOM!, IDW, and Dark Horse. Amy also works frequently with Hasbro and has been a My Little Pony comic artist and toy designer for the last 15 years, and currently works on MLP trading card art for Hasbro and Kayou. Before taking up art professionally, Amy obtained an Honours degree in music from the University of Sydney before joining Walt Disney Animation Australia as an inbetweener. Amy then moved to the United States to pursue a comic career and now lives in Orange County, California, spending far too much time at Disneyland.
