Quotes from zelvin elizabeth ii

I first said I wanted to be a writer at the age of seven. It took longer to get that first novel out than I expected.

My first novel, Death Will Get You Sober, came out on my sixty-fourth birthday--not quite the career path I expected.

What inspired the mystery series as a whole was my desire to write about recovery from alcoholism, codependency, and other addictions and compulsive behaviors. Recovery is an amazing transformational process that sometimes verges on the miraculous. Many people know little or nothing about it, and many others think it must be dark and depressing. I wanted to create engaging characters in recovery to manage to have some fun in the process of turning their lives around.
