Jay Eales

Jay Eales was born between episodes 3 and 4 of The Enemy of the World, appropriately enough. Some might say suspiciously so. He edited the Faction Paradox collection, *Burning with Optimism's Flames*, wrote the Senor 105 novella, *The Five Faces of Fear*for Obverse Books, and has contributed stories to their Iris Wildthyme, City of the Saved and Faction Paradox ranges*.*

 You see that Obverse Books logo? He did that. He also shares the love with other publishers when they let him. He writes, edits, designs, letters, publishes and teaches comics and has the long-arm stapler scars to prove it. He was News Features Editor for the award-winning Borderline Magazine.

A British Fantasy Award runner-up two years running, he lives with a double Eisner nominated writer. He's had tea and chocolates at Alan Moore's house and likes XTC more than most. Stalk him at www.factorfictionpress.co.uk.
