Now I'd like to share an interview with the author! :D *Special note: The interview was provided by Xpresso Book Tours for this post. I didn't interview the author myself.*
1. Tell us 5 words to describe Creatura.
Love Story, Thrilling, Surprising, Different, Intoxicating
2. Which was the main reason you started writing it?
I started writing out of boredom and took it up as hobby. I
had enjoyed writing when I was younger and decided that this was something that
only required my imagination and my computer.
3.How do you see your future as a writer?
I try to stay positive about new doors being opened for me
as a writer even though there is a lot of competition in the literary world.
But for now, I will to continue writing for you and the rest of the YA reader
out there and hope for the best in my future.
4. Do you find yourself reflected in any of the characters?
In which one and in what way?
I find myself relating mostly to Nyx and Claire because they
are both mothers and like to cook. They take care of their families and are
ready to defend their children like a lioness.
5. Tell us one
favourite book you've read or you want to read (except yours , of course,
hihi!)
I really want to read a lot of books, but one that has
caught my eye recently is “Obsidian” by Jennifer L. Armentrout.
6. My interview ends here so I invite you to say something
for my readers and your fans (or future fans).
I’d like you all to know that your support and your interest
in “Creatura” overwhelm me. I never expected such a warm reception when I first
published my book, especially not from people outside the U.S. I thought for a
long time that no one would take interest in my novel. But now, to know that it
will soon be in a country as beautiful as Romania and read by its people that
are equally or more beautiful, gives me inspiration to write. Thank you for
being a part of my world and a huge part of motivation.
