What was your favorite book as a child?

Anne of Green Gables.

What was the original reason or motivation why you started writing creatively?

I am a lifelong reader and have always enjoyed writing in school; essays, stories, speeches, all of it. When I started university, a technical field, I started missing writing and so it became sort of a creative outlet.

What was the most adventurous or thrilling thing you ever did/experienced?

I’d say travel is always a thrill for me. Beautiful landscapes, mountains especially. There’s nothing more exciting than reaching the top of some absurdly tall rock ;)

Do you listen to music while reading or writing?

I never do while writing but I often create a playlist dedicated to a specific project and listen to it throughout the day, in-between writing sessions. It helps me to stay in the vibe, especially if it’s a longer project.
