Who We Are:



President/CEO: Vivian Zabel







 Born under the flight pattern on Randolph A.F.B., Texas, this
author, editor, wife, mother, and retired teacher thought she had to
be a plane. She nearly went into shock when her parents informed
her that she was a person. She often wondered why she had people
for parents.  
 She followed her military father from Texas to Guam back home to
Oklahoma to Morocco back to Oklahoma to Maine before they
returned to Oklahoma again. She met her husband in 1961, and they
married in 1962. Her family and life experiences become the
foundation for most of her writing works.
 Vivian wrote and studied writing for over fifty years. For 27 years,
she taught English, composition, creative writing, newspaper,
yearbook, and literary magazine. As she taught, she studied and
honed her own skills.  Over the period of forty-eight years, she has
poetry, articles, and short stories published. So far she has been
published in five books.
 With her experience in teaching and the "editing" required in
evaluation of students' work, the next step Vivian took was as a
professional editor. She has been on both sides of the writing coin:
writing and editing.

Artist/Illustrator: Jordan M. Vinyard






   From small awkward sketches at the age of five to highly detailed photo
realistic drawings, detail oriented paintings, and colorful illustrations;
Jordan Vinyard’s pursuit of art has been ever prevalent. At the age of 24,
Jordan graduated from the University of Central Oklahoma with a
Bachelor of Fine Arts and was honored by the College of Arts, Media, and
Design with the award of Excellence. Proud to become part of 4RV
Publishing LLC, she continues to expand her creative outlets as an
illustrator. In addition, she currently works on murals across the state of
Oklahoma and displays her work in various exhibitions.
Jordan’s goal as an artist is to preserve the five-year-old spirit that
initiated her pursuit of art and exemplify the sacredly transient by placing
it on paper.





    Artist/Illustrator: Zog Zabel





   Bob (Zog) Zabel has been in the Air Force for nearly twenty years, but
he was an artist long before he made the decision to join the military. His
first oil painting hangs in his parents' living room, and he started
illustrating Louie the Duck stories over six years ago.
Between jaunts across the country and across both oceans, he's finishing
the art work for
Louie the Duck's Adventure, which should be released after
the first of the year.





                                  Illustrator/graphics: Randy Zabel









                                              Graphics / Tech: Crystalwizard





   "Crystalwizard" is both an author and graphic artist, though her three
cats would tell a different story since they believe the reason for her
existence is them. When she isn’t writing, she creates art in other ways,
mostly digital. She does computer graphics, including covers for her own
books and for others. With the little time left between writing and creating
art, Crystal  fixes computers for people or pursues chocolate.
