Eugène Scribe

Augustin Eugène Scribe was a French dramatist and librettist. He is known for writing "well-made plays" ("pièces bien faites"), a mainstay of popular theatre for over 100 years, and as the librettist of many of the most successful grand operas and opéras-comiques.

Born to a middle-class Parisian family, Scribe was intended for a legal career, but was drawn to the theatre, and began writing plays while still in his teens. His early years as a playwright were unsuccessful, but from 1815 onwards he prospered. Writing, usually with one or more collaborators, he produced several hundred stage works. He wrote to entertain the public rather than educate it. Many of his plays were written in a formulaic manner which aimed at neatness of plot and foc

Benjamin Lee

Meet Benjamin Lee, the world's most passionate donut critic, who has dedicated his life to exploring, tasting, and savoring every type of donut imaginable. With a palate as refined as it is sweet, Benjamin’s love for donuts began at an early age, when he first encountered the sugary, soft joy of a fresh glaze on a Saturday morning. Little did he know, that first bite would spark a lifelong obsession—a devotion that has led him on a deliciously unique journey.

Benjamin is not just your average food critic. He is a man with a singular, unwavering focus: donuts. He’s tasted thousands—perhaps many thousands—of donuts across the globe, from the classic ring-shaped ones of New York to the more exotic varieties found in the bakeries of Europe. But

Kesha D. Ely

I grew up on the west side of Chicago, off of Central and Division, with my 12 siblings and parents. The environment was bad but my family and I found ways to distract ourselves from the violence: by filming home movies, starting a band, hosting family award shows and brainstorming ideas for movies and tv shows. I owe my drive for creativity to them. I started writing at 8 years old, badly at that, but I've improved my hobby. I began composing piano instrumentals around the same age. My video editing hobby started about 2 years ago, I began diving into that by producing book trailers for writers online and even for myself. I've always wanted to direct or see my works come to life, making edits is the closest I can get to that right now.

Beth Andrews

Librarian note:
There is more than one author with this name

Beth Andrews (a.k.a. Paul Bethel) was born and raised in Nassau, Bahamas. At the age of about seven, “Beth” was reading completely inappropriate tales of murder and love in True Detective and True Romance magazine. It wasn't long before he started writing stories, often with a strong note of satire. Graduating to Georgette Heyer and Jane Austen, Regency romance and mystery was a natural progression—though Paul still pens occasional contemporary stories and song lyrics just for fun, as well as non-fiction articles and essays for Jane Austen’s Regency World. Paul also enjoys music, gardening, travel (pre-pandemic, of course) and the beach. His ebooks are now published by Joffe Books i
