*THIS STORY IS COMPLETELY FICTIONAL. However, this is based off of the Ebola crisis in Liberia. Real West African names are used to make this as authentic as possible. I have done lots of research on the Ebola crisis. Thank you for reading this.*
My name is Arway Ekwensi. I am 16 years old. I live in Monrovia, a large city in Liberia. It may seem like my life is going well, but you have never been so wrong. As you may already know, Ebola has hit our country, and many others, very hard. So far, there is no cure. I hope to not only survive, but to live.

zombie apocalypse | the fallen (book One) [REWRITING]
Firstly, A trigger warning for mental health/ self inflicted wounds when reading. you're only 18 years old. your name is zoe. you always had a love for the apocalypse but didn't think it would truly happen. and you slowly learn that nobody is who they say they are. Nobody is to be trusted. Things are gonna fall apart, and nobody can save us now. This book is being rewritten again and hopefully is better than the first and second time it was published. It's kind of cringe most of the way. Wrote it when i was like 13-14 years old or something and tried rewriting when I was about 16. Didn't work. Trying to rewrite it again at 20 but i don't think the first two books are saveable. Book three so far however is going well(i believe anyway). The second book has also been rewritten and will be rewritten again. now I'm working on finishing book three. All characters are mine but ellis is not I will be changing a lot of character names again in this rewriting process in all books, ellis being the biggest.Complete

This book is 70% fiction,the other 30% are well known historical events and facts. I love how i was able to put together everything I love about literature into this book. I love the historical feel it has to it,the romance and how shows a glimpse of my beautiful maternal culture. It's mostly about the history on the slavery of the Edo people in Nigeria during the colonial times. Basically this book (Ehi),is a fictional representation of slavery during the colonial times. I really hope you enjoy and learn alot about my maternal history from it💜. *************** This book is currently undergoing editing. I take full responsibility for all the errors. This book is how i imagine things were for a young girl during those times. It will be nothing like you expected.So,please keep reading and join me on this incredible journey. ⚠️Most of the contents of this book are not facts or actual past events,it is 70% fictionComplete
