B. L. PRIDE? Who is this, anyway? It’s quite hard to write something unambiguous about B. L. Pride. She was born in Maribor, Slovenia, went to a particular high school, chose a university that seemed more or less interesting, and now she does completely different things. She’s a teacher and an executive assistant. She’s got two different men and four children. She’s full of opposites but has one great passion—books. Confusing? She’s actually an avatar of two best friends and a symbol of their lives’ project. When the author Barbara Pristovnik finished her first novel that was originally written in Slovene, she never dreamed of sharing her lunacy with the rest of the planet but the other half of the team Lea Dežman put her foot down and decided to translate it into English. Two absolute beginners were swirled into the overwhelming world of self—publishing and took their Sunday coffee dates to a completely different level. Addiction is the result.
