ELLEN CHAUVET
Ellen lives in Vancouver, British
Columbia. Her love for reading and writing developed at an early
age and she wrote several short stories and plays which were lost
over the years and many moves.
Ellen has had several
careers, including hospital administration, fashion, and leading
programs for a company called Landmark Worldwide. Ellen is
masterful in the areas of communication, team building,
management, and personal development.
More recently, Ellen
has dabbled in producing indie films and is an Executive Producer
for Suspension (Dead of Night - 2015) and Puppet Killer (in
post-production).
In 2003 a friend introduced her to Buffy
the Vampire Slayer, and Ellen was fascinated by the idea of good
and evil vampires. From that point on, Ellen read every vampire
novel she could get her hands on. She particularly loves Anne
Rice, Charlaine Harris, Laurell K. Hamilton and J.R. Ward. In
2010, she wrote the first draft of "When Darkness Falls", and a
new career was born. "When Darkness Falls" is the first in a
series of books called The Vampire Redemption Series and is adult
fiction.
The book is available on Amazon in both e-book and
print. The links are:

ROBERT TOZER
Robert Tozer is the author of the newly published novel, The Dead, of which Colonies is the first in the trilogy. Prior to that, he has been published in the US and UK in some killer anthologies, all of which are currently available on Amazon and accessible through his website: www.thedead.us
Robert is also the director and content editor at Dead Ink Publishing Inc.
Robert has graduated from the school of hard knocks, written award winning fiction in his mind, and was not responsible for the viral outbreak which has decimated the world. He currently resides with his wonderful wife, Jana, son, Hayden (who is a little monster but not a zombie), and two non-viral infected dogs, Baxter and Hunter, in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. Along with other survivors, he soon plans on acquiring a caravan of RVs and relocating to a different clime in order to escape the bloodthirsty zombie hordes.
-------------------------
ROBERT TOZER'S "THE DEAD":
Time has run out for the human race. A virus has decimated the planet, returning the dead back to life. Groups of displaced people gather together and roam the countryside, searching for a sanctuary.
Spencer has a singular goal: Travel with his companion, Lexi, to the west coast, find a seaworthy boat, and sail away to a tropical island-hopefully, without any of the dead occupying it. Along the way, the two of them get conscripted into a ragtag band of survivors, and together they travel across America with conflicting goals. Half the camp wants to travel city to city, liberating any survivors and ridding the US of the menace that is the dead; the other half wants to escape, finding a safe haven away from the killing and horror. A political power struggle is created and Spencer is forced to choose sides; but will he lead the group to safety or will he return to his original plan and abandon the camp to strike out with Lexi once again. Spencer battles against his nature as he leads a fighting force into a small city for life saving supplies. But in this new world, the hungry and murderous dead aren't the only things to be feared. Sometimes the biggest threat to humanity's survival is the living.
