ALEXA JOHANSEN
Founder & CEO | Author of Dear Girl
Not chill, very enthusiastic about any and everything.
Alexa, Ph.D., received her doctorate degree in the field of Higher Education from Azusa Pacific University. She holds a Master's degree in Literature from Loyola Marymount University, and a Bachelor's degree in English Literature and Creative Writing from California State University Long Beach. Alexa has been writing stories since she could spell, poetry since the 4th grade, and learned the art of watercolors in 9th grade.
She is 6-years married to her ridiculously good-looking husband, Matt. Together, they rescued a goofy dog named Ellie. When Alexa is not at her editorial desk or art table, you'll find her hand-in-hand with her husband in the mountains -- they love hiking, climbing, and backpacking!
She also laughs really loud.

ASPEN MEDLEY
Social Media Content Creator
A true creative; can make anything subpar *aesthetic*
Aspen Medley is a law student pursuing a career in public interest law to help women and survivors. Outside of research and study hours, Aspen pursues her passion and talent in various forms of artistry. She owns a small business, Love Always Aspen, by which she sells her handmade products, jewelry, and paintings. Poetry is another outlet for Aspen's artistry and self-expression. Her work is featured in our published anthology, Eyes & Windows & Souls.
And, finally, our GoldScriptCo Instagram is a much more consistent, interactive, and *aesthetic* business account because of Aspen's creative eye, artistic touch, and brilliant ideas! We are very grateful to have Aspen as a cherished member of our GoldScriptCo fam!

EMMA GAZLEY
Author of For Those Who Cannot Live Or Die
Can pick up any hobby and be pro at it.
Emma Gazley has never had a chance to gather moss, having been a rolling stone since she was only a year old, when her family immigrated from Canada to London. Having as many house-moves under her belt as years of age, and after another ocean-cross to the United States, she has learned a deep love for friendships, all music, books, and her pillow.
Currently based in Los Angeles, you can normally find her meticulously examining the ingredients on every package in the health food section, writing and reading, at an art museum, or working out with her tattoo artist husband. A good Korean drama is probably on in the background.

B LINE DOT
Author of It's Nothing or It's Everything
Creative, believer, family forever
Manufactured in Colorado, B currently resides in Seattle, Washington. B likes to say that his own personhood is a tapestry of everyone he's ever loved or that has every loved him. B spent his formative years reading the dictionary because he loved to know the meaning and etymology of his language. Ever since, he has used such knowledge in his attempts to correctly communicate the experiences he has or perceives.
"Writing is and always will be my first love. I only started painting because, at some point, I felt like I ran out of words."
B is a maker, a creative, or, in his words, "a plain old artist." B aims to make sense of the world in words and brushstrokes.

KATHRYN H. ROSS

Lover of Jesus, big fan of therapy, huge MCU nerd.
Kathryn is a professional freelance writer and editor, an adjunct professor, a columnist, a proofreader, and of course, an author.

In both her writing and personal life, Kathryn desires and enjoys getting to the heart of relationships, stories, and people by stripping away the surface layers through contemplation, conversation, and time to reveal the inner soul.
