Elizabeth Davis wrote her first book as an elementary school assignment when she was eight years old. It was called Silly Excuses—a book about fantastic excuses young children can tell their parents when misbehaving. Not only did she pass the project with flying colors, but her teacher was so taken with the book that she had it published in the school library. Elizabeth has been writing ever since and is currently the author of the Sanctorum Order series, which consists of thrilling contemporary romances. She lives in The Netherlands with her husband, their son, and family cat. http://www.elizabeth-davis.com.

Stephen Hernández was born in 1960, in Bromley, England, (the only characteristics he shares with H.G. Wells and David Bowie but always finds it worth mentioning anyway as a point of interest), but spent a lot of his childhood in Venezuela. He has lived and worked in South America for a large part of his life. At one time he ran a nightclub in one of the most dangerous cities in Venezuela; after surviving cancer, he concluded that surviving a terminal illness was far less dangerous than running a nightclub in Venezuela. He works as a translator and interpreter of Spanish with a specialization in medicine. He now divides his time between England, Italy and South America. When he is not working he likes to write.
