Wren James is the Carnegie-longlisted British author of many Young Adult novels as "Lauren James", a RLF Royal Fellow, and the story consultant on Netflix's Heartstopper (Seasons 2 and 3). They like writing stories where queer characters get to be messy and toxic, and exploring "bad representation".

As the founder of the Climate Fiction Writers League, Wren works as a consultant on climate storytelling for museums, production companies, major brands and publishers, with a focus on optimism and hope. They run a Queer Writers group in Coventry and are on Instagram at @wrenjameswriter. The Victors is Wren's debut graphic novel.

Beth Fuller is an artist from Dublin, Ireland. Accustomed to getting into trouble for drawing in school, she then decided to subvert that by going to art college. Now based in Copenhagen, she draws anything from concept art for for video games and animation to comics. She can usually be found somewhere between the wine and biscuit aisles of her local supermarket or taking bad black and white film photographs of her friends. The Victors is Beth's first time illustrating a graphic novel.
