Thanks for coming in, let me introduce myself properly so that we can get to know each other.
My name is Paula, and I write
novels. I live with my husband and rabbit. I work as an
engineering geologist at a construction firm in Finland, and only in my spare
time, I do write novels.
So far, I have kept my stories
for myself, and writing has been a sort of therapy, something to cope with the
everyday stress. You know, waking up every day at the same time, breakfast, feeding
the bunny, get dressed and go to work for eight hours… God, I needed an escape!
I have always been an
incurable dreamer, but my dreams didn’t necessarily involve me doing
something different, those included living different lives and imagining
different identities. At a certain point, I decided to bring those imaginary
worlds to life, by writing them in the paper (ok, on a computer screen, saved to
the hard drive).
Then, one day, I talked to a
friend of mine about my new hobby, and she insisted on reading one of my
novels; she was impressed and encouraged me to publish it. I generally do not
get impressed when a family member or friend flatter me, it can easily be that
their judgment is biased by the affection. Nevertheless, the idea started to
twirl in my mind, so I decided to try and see what the general public had to
say about my stories.
I get my inspiration mostly
from my travels around the world, where I have the chance to meet very
different people, cultures, and sceneries that inspire my imagination. This is
the reason why I coupled my passion for writing with my passion for traveling,
and that’s why I figured out the Wandering Writer. In this blog, besides marketing my literary production,
I share my experiences around the world, hoping you will find them interesting,
and you will also like my novels.
Whatever question you might
have, don’t hesitate and contact me.
Until then,
I wish you a lovely day!
