Hi crazy, addicted, passionate reading community, just few words about myself. In my 20s I was fortunate enough to get to travel the world a bit, by now I have lived in 7 different countries. I backpacked Latin America; studied in Europe, Mexico Australia & Singapore. There is so much I have seen & learnt on those adventures. Writing is my way of sharing it.
I had an idea 2 years ago for a book & just started scribbling a little something. I am a big fantasy & science-fiction fan. I devoured A Song of Ice and Fire (aka Game of Thrones) and Foundation series. I always knew that I would marry Indiana Jones one day. If not him then Han Solo. Come on! The guy is still the coolest dude on this planet! All my life I have been dreaming up those fantastic worlds full of dangers and adventures.
And the time has finally come to share it with you. I will try posting something every Friday. Have fun!
What has influenced this book?
1. I believe in reincarnation and karma
2. Lack of compassion for the poor, refugees and racism are too pervasive in this world. I think we all can do something about it.
3. I don't believe in the devil or dark forces, there are just people who make bad choices
4. However, often situations or other people bring either the best or the worst in us
5. To tell a story, you need to know different points of view, cause the truth has different faces. That is why my book has many main characters who tell their story
6. I don't listen to the main streem news
7. I love The Song of Ice and Fire series (aka Game of Thrones) and it influenced my story building. There will be lots of secrets.
8. One of the characters is based on Indiana Jones :)
------
PS: What am I trying to achieve with my book?
1. I would like to get my book published one day and donate half of the proceedings to orphanages
2. I would LOOOOVE for it to turn into a Disney movie one day! Gotta dream big! :)
Special thanks to @TWClawson for helping me create the book cover! :)
