Anka B Troitsky
Anka B. Troitsky lives in the UK since 1993. A philosopher, artist, science teacher, and translator, she has worked across diverse fields, translating books, police cases, court hearings, and National Health Service documents. An insatiable reader and perpetual learner, she devours books by the dozens and continually hones new skills. Though she claims no sense of humour, her sharp insights and thought-provoking narratives speak volumes.
As an independent author, Anka explores profound ideas and discoveries through hard science fiction novels and multi-genre short stories, including LGBTQ+ themes. Her five-part series, Who is Vist, is a deep, multi-layered dystopian technothriller interwoven with elements of romanticism and horror. Her latest work is deeply influenced by the ongoing war and political crimes against the Ukrainian people, delving into the psychology of those responsible for humanity’s greatest atrocities and its most extraordinary triumphs.
Greg Hickey
Author of entertaining stories for smart readers. Download the short novel The Theory of Anything for free on the author's website.
Greg Hickey wrote his first novel, Our Dried Voices, while spending a year in Sundsvall, Sweden and Cape Town, South Africa, playing and coaching for local baseball teams. That novel was published in 2014 and was a finalist for Foreword Reviews’ INDIES Science Fiction Book of the Year Award.
Today, he still loves sharing stories while staying busy with the other facets of his life. Following twelve-plus years of work as a forensic scientist, he is now a full-time author. After his post-college travels, he once again lives in his hometown of Chicago with his wife and daughter.
Mark Allen
Mark Allen specializes in tough, hard-hitting fiction that slams you like a bullet in the face.
His action novel "The Assassin's Prayer" was optioned by Showtime. His horror script "Gristle"--now a gritty horror novel--was a semi-finalist in the prestigious 2010 Slamdance Screenplay Competition where it was called "a perfect blend of high drama and blood-and-guts slasher horror."
Allen currently lives in the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York with a wife he loves, two daughters he adores, a pair of cats he hates with every fiber of his being, and enough ammunition to ensure he is never bothered by door-to-door salesmen.
