About the Author
ELLY STEVENS
Elly Stevens was born and raised a city girl in Rochester, New York, in a family of story-tellers. In high school, she worked on the staff of the literary magazine, Spectrum.
Following her dream of writing, she joined the Publications group at
Eastman Kodak Company where she held several positions including
technical editor and the consumer-relationship management (CRM)
team project manager for KODAK Digital Camera e-mail marketing
campaigns.
After she retired, it wasn't until a former co-worker, Joe Janowicz, contacted Elly to edit his first novel, BANG-BANG, YOU'RE DEAD in 2018 that she picked
up writing again. Her first book, a memoir, SEARCHING FOR SERENITY IN MY CRAZY LIFE, allows a peek into many of the real-life experiences
with her family and friends.
Her second book, a novel, DANGEROUS PASSION, is a story of relationships, choices, passions, and ultimately...murder. Sue Gainer, an important character in this story, returns in Elly's third book, MURDER ON THE ERIE CANAL. Sue learns the ropes as a private investigator and finds herself in deep water with a killer.
In 2021 she began researching her first true crime, GOODBYE, FAT LARRY, which she published in 2024.
