She has a website, Quill & Sword, where her own and other authors' stories are archived. In addition to being a Queen of Swords fan, Maril has been a lifelong admirer of Sherlock Holmes, and has written several pastiches of his adventures. She is currently working on a novel which will take some time to complete.

Terry Parkinson - A first time writer, Terry wrote his first story, "Montoya's Trap" as a way to say thank you to Maril Swan, for all the enjoyment he had received reading her Queen of Swords fiction. Since then, he has found writing a way to deal with the frustration and disappointment of the premature cancellation of the Queen of Swords. Terry lives with his wife, two horses, two dogs, and a cat in Victoria, B.C., Canada. A professional accountant, Terry also rides horses seven days a week (although unfortunately not Andulsians). Time for writing is squeezed in between work, looking after the horses and taking the two dogs out for their daily run. He is working on a new Queen of Swords story, and looking forward to the day when Fireworks will at least do a TV movie for the series, or release it on DVD.
