About Veronica
Born in Romania, on the Black Sea coast, Veronica has been reading voraciously since the age of 5 and started writing when she was about 10. The muses were generous with their gifts and ideas kept pouring in, but it would be many years before she started writing more purposefully, publishing a short story and a poem, and having one more poem featured in an installation at the Festival des migrations, des cultures et de la citoyenneté in Luxembourg.
In the meantime, life has been rich in experiences – acting, singing, props-making, travels, and the company of many wonderful friends – for which Veronica is enormously grateful (and which may or may not end up in her stories).
Having lived for many years in the heart of Europe, in Luxembourg, she has now returned home and lives and writes in Bucharest, but keeps dreaming of her seaside town and a quiet house with a little garden in the mountains. Both at once, if possible. Quantum stuff may need to be involved.
In the works:
- Three stories are to be published in collective volumes.
- A short story collection is being revised and illustrations pondered.
- A couple more poems have been written and are awaiting revision before publication in the dedicated area on the website.
- A novel (see below) is advancing, albeit a bit slowly.
Favourite writers: Terry Pratchett, Octavia Butler, Tom Stoppard.
Favourite genres: science-fiction, magical realism, fantastic, fantasy, mystery, plus anything that makes her laugh.
