Terry Tyler

I am self-published with twenty-eight books on Amazon. My latest is Safe Zone, a dystopian/post-apocalyptic thriller. It follows on from the SFV-1 series (Infected, Darkness and Reset), but is completely stand-alone, so can be read as a story within itself.

Other recent releases include Where There's Doubt, a psychological drama about a romance scammer and his victims, and Megacity, the final part in the dystopian Operation Galton trilogy - the follow-up to Hope and Wasteland - and The Visitor, a post-apocalyptic murder mystery set in the same world as my Project Renova series, but a separate story, with new characters.

Best-selling indie and hybrid author Becki Willis loves crafting stories with believable characters in believable situations. Many of her stories stem from her own personal experiences. (No worries; she's never actually murdered anyone).

Hollis Brady

I BELIEVE in the power of story. As a developmental editor and former director of the Stanford Publishing Courses, I’ve spent a lifetime digging out, poring over, and working with stories—the best of which have profoundly touched me and changed my worldview. Such stories—powerful, evocative and absorbing—have been instrumental in motivating me to finish my own novel Pescadero.

Pescadero is a work of fiction. The characters and story arc are imagined, but the descriptions of what today’s migrants experience as they attempt to cross America’s southern border are largely true.

The details in this novel have been shared with me personally during my experiences with undocumented migrants and those who support them at the border in Juarez, Nogales
