I'm an indie writer and photographer.
Gardening, collecting old photographs, and listening to the sound of rain when plotting a new, exciting story are some of my favorite things to do, and they do show up in my stories in one way or another.
I've graduated from Canterbury Christ Church University with a degree in Film, Radio, and Television.
In 2016 I published a non-fiction book about woodcarving.
In 2017 I published a short novel titled Velvet Touch (under the pen name Lily Bloom).
I love (no-dig) gardening and growing our own food. I am a promoter of a lifestyle as close to nature as possible and plan of having my own food forest ā a creative retreat.
I write and publish adult fiction, non-fiction and (soon) kids picture books ā they bring me a lot of joy and happiness.
I occasionally like to dabble in the (mobile) journalism area so I (video) interview artists and share their work with the world. Those various interviews can be found on my YouTube channel.
I am currently working on two novels:
Midnight Tears (the sequel to my debut novel)
and
Tender is The Rain (a standalone psychological thriller).
I'm also in the process of writing and publishing a book of short horror stories (Whispers and Other Strange Stories) and a non-fiction book about writing novels (Simple Ways).
Currently, I live in Manchester, the United Kingdom. I am originally from Vrancea, Romania.
