FAQ

When did you first realise you wanted to be an author?

I’ve wanted to be an author since I learned to write.
I began to write short stories in my notebooks when I was around seven.
That's my author origin story, or the short version of it.
(No villain origin story for me.)

What inspires your writing?

Anything.
A song, an event, a poem, a dream, a trip, a memory, nature...
The list is endless.

What do you like to do besides writing?

I am a literature major and a linguistics and education minor,
so a lot of my time is spent studying.
On top of that, I love arts, crafts, and photography.
And obviously, my dogs.
I also love visiting museums and old castles.
I even live next to a medieval castle.
