Ginny Greene likely arrived on Planet Earth with a bluepencil clutched in her fist. Current president of Abilene Writers Guild, her writing life includes years of newspaper lifestyle features, a newspaper column, and a handful of newsletters, including seven years editing the Guild's newsletter. For fun, Ginny writes poems and works crossword puzzles. She edits everything, even street signage, especially yard sale signs, even in her sleep. She's happiest seeing her love of words spilled over to her children and grandchildren, including daughter, Karen, also a Silver Boomers editor. Ginny and her grown family reside in and around Abilene, Texas, while most of her relatives are still in the Northwest.

Kerin Riley-Bishop is the baby of a Boomer. She moved to Abilene Texas in 2003 with her then 6 year-old son. An inexhaustible wanderlust paired with an artists eye for beauty have led her cross-country several times and through some of America's most beautiful landscapes. Such sights have given her incredible fuel and fodder for her writing, photography, and other artistic endeavors. Her writing reflects a deep spirituality and respect for nature. She is a current member of the Abilene Writer's Guild and the Abilene Wordshop Poetry group, and also acts as the promotional guru for both groups. She is currently working on a photo-poetry journal project, as well as on her first novel.

The past president of Abilene Writers Guild maintains the group's website as well as those of other nonprofits besides her www.SharpWriters.com.
