VLADIR INGERMAN – Distinguished Oilman, Doctor of Technical Science.
Having explored 74 countries, swum in 55 seas and oceans, and participated in a yacht trip around the globe, I’ve been fortunate to witness the richness life has to offer.
I was born in the Northern Caucasus of the Soviet Union. Professionally, my journey started in the Field Expedition of Tajikistan, transitioned into scientific circles in Moscow. Later, I led the exploration and development of oil and gas fields in Western Siberia and eventually traveled across the world to the United States. Along the way, I learned the values of resilience and adaptability—skills that have been essential in my pursuit of health and longevity.
I have lived in various countries, across different centuries and eras, experiencing life under both socialism and capitalism. I have observed diverse societal layers, cultures, and a wide range of geographical and climatic conditions.
Throughout my life, I’ve prioritized physical activity, mental strength, and meaningful social connections. For me, these three elements form the foundation of a thriving life.
Gul Aina
Author
Gul Aina is a Kazakh-born writer, satirist, and healthcare professional living in London. A decade ago, she fled Kazakhstan for political reasons, seeking refuge in the UK, where she rebuilt her life while navigating the eccentricities of British culture. When she’s not writing, she continues her work in healthcare, a profession she first trained for in her homeland.
Her writing is a sharp, unfiltered, and often hilarious reflection of her own journey as an outsider trying to make sense of a new world. Drawing from real-life experiences, Gul Aina infuses her storytelling with biting humor, cultural observations, and a fearless critique of power structures—both in the West and within the Kazakh diaspora.
Her debut novel introduces Lapshugal, a bold and unapologetic Kazakh woman making her way through London’s chaos with wit, survival instincts, and a knack for getting into (and out of) trouble. Gul Aina is currently working on two follow-up books: an origin story of Lapshugal, tracing her path from Kazakhstan to London, and a sequel that plunges her into the hidden world of the elite and powerful figures within the Kazakh diaspora—where money, influence, and scandal go hand in hand.
Gul Aina writes to entertain, to expose, and to give voice to the absurdities of exile, identity, and ambition. Through her sharp satire, she turns survival into an art form and hardship into comedy and poignant counterpoint.

Davide Betton
Author
Davide Betton is an emerging Italian author who has carved out a distinctive niche in psychological thrillers set against the enchanting backdrop of Lake Garda. Drawing inspiration from the golden age of mystery writing and particularly Agatha Christie's psychological approach to crime fiction, Betton crafts intricate narratives that delve deep into the human psyche.
Currently based in the picturesque town of Garda on the shores of its namesake lake, Betton was born in Verona and maintains a strong connection to the region that features prominently in his works. His writing style combines the timeless appeal of classic mystery with a contemporary sensibility, creating atmospheric thrillers that keep readers guessing until the final page.
While two of his novels have been published to date, Betton's literary ambitions extend beyond the thriller genre. His upcoming works include a historical novel and an innovative series that blends esoteric and technological themes. The latter is exemplified by his "Mysteries at the Euroresidence" saga, of which the first volume has already been released, marking the beginning of what promises to be an engaging exploration of modern mysteries with metaphysical undertones.
Betton's work is characterized by its rich psychological depth, atmospheric settings, and the skillful way he weaves the stunning Lake Garda landscape into his narratives, making the location itself an integral character in his stories.

Tammy Gregg
Author
Tammy Gregg crafts literary Gothic fiction that explores the shifting boundaries between reality and the surreal in small-town New England. Her debut Why Did God Make the Tree? is the first of the Patrick Denny novels—interwoven narratives and nested stories within stories that confound imagination, madness, and truth. A lifelong New Englander with degrees in English from Boston University, Gregg draws from the psychological complexity of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Henry James, the uncanny dread of Arthur Machen, and the atmospheric menace of Shirley Jackson.
TJ Sparks
Author
TJ Sparks is.....well, kind of weird. He writes about whatever interests him at the moment. Sometimes, it's fantasy; sometimes, it's more realism-based, but usually with a decent amount of humor, regardless of genre. He's as likely to write about an lgbtq+ couple as he is to write about a heterosexual couple and believes firmly in the concept of 'Love is Love.' When he isn't writing comedic tales of love, lust, voyeur goats, and passive-aggressive smart cars, TJ enjoys spending time outdoors soaking up the sun. He loves fishing on the pier, combing for sand dollars on the beach, and bonfires after sunset. He has a weakness for strays and will have to register with the local SPCA as an overflow shelter if he starts caring for one more. Nature provides TJ with inspiration and peace of mind, fueling his creative writing. The ironic humor he sees in everyday life sets the mood for his stories.
