CORE TEAM
●
Tessa Livingstone is an English professor and poet with a strong interest in the macabre. Her approach centers on thorough methodology and a high level of polish.
Rhys Hamilton Livingstone is an inland sailor, trained artist and writer. More prolific than his cousin but less refined, he focuses on thematic worldbuilding and surrealist gonzo texture.
Sammy “The Swede,” aka Commandant, is a valued all around fixer-upper, great to bounce ideas off, and a blessed contributor. Tessa and Rhys can’t be bothered to keep up with any social media anything– Sammy can thanfully do something, at least.

PRIVATE CITIZENS’ REPORT
●
Stephanie Stewart really, really, really doesn’t share her husband’s interest in goofy SFF nonsense and arthouse pretension, but helps out graciously. An invaluable reader whose practical feedback elevates Outer Freakwave’s written and visual material alike.
Icicleteeth is a Southern California artist and visual designer who illustrated the first printing of Underground Fantasy Stories [. . .], is designing Mad Romance In The Outlaw Timberlands, and did visual development for an unrealized project. Their work is as remarkably composed as it is expressive, demonstrating an inimitable gift for shape logic. They can be contacted through @icicleteeth on Twitter
Silas Derschel is a Chicago-based artist and writer, very much inspired by pop art reinvention. He’s contributed multiple manuscripts and cover images for Outer Freakwave projects over the years, and has even less interest in establishing a social media presence than the cousins. His writing has been featured in such indie publications as Dark Rise Up and Quaalude Dude Literary Magazine.
Artyom Trakhanov is a stylistically exhilarating artist whos work graces The Devolted and the upcoming Outer Freakwave Reader (alongside his frequent partner-in-crime, Artyom Doomov.) Unimaginable how anyone is sleeping on his work right now, or his remarkable legacies on projects like First Knife and Dagger Dagger. Hustling though an impressive array of projects which can be found at https://bio.site/ohotnig/.
