feisty mind

Between real and magic, I am oh-so many things: aspiring author, witch, mother, sportswoman, ambitious corporate professional, feminine bitch, slightly crazy.

So this is not a perfectly curated life here, it’s messy. Some of us were not, indeed, built for still waters.

Here I lay it all down (or almost all): the questions that haunt me, the quiet truths that won’t let go, the books that change me, the words that keep me awake at night, and the worlds I long to live in.

Feisty mind. Restless soul. Always moving toward the next chapter.

  • Vices of choice

    The day I stopped reading fantasy, I started drinking. There was no smooth transition from one to the other, just strangely realise. – “Why do you drink?” – He asked. A he that I do not really know the name anymore, if I must be honest. He is friend of a friend, I think. The…

  • Characters

    I am currently building characters. Seems like a necessary requirement for writing any good book. Although, to be honest I did not study for this, so have no clue how it is done*. But common sense (my dearest old friend) tells me that you need deep, dense characters that you can relate with. The thing…

  • Go go go

    Did not write yesterday. It was a conscious choice to read for 3h until pass I out exhausted of so many adventures. I like to read, more than that, I need to read. When the reality tries to cripple in my bones and drag me down. Read allows me to escape, live other lives, experiment…

I am living and breathing my characters, listening to podcasts, checking Instagram pages, searching for book conventions… and my ideas are driving faster than…
