[she/her] The first thing Martina ever wrote was fanfiction. But since 12-year-old Martina didn’t have a clue about how a good story should look like, the stories were accordingly cringe. That didn’t stop her though, so she continued to write. Until fanfiction turned into original work and oneshots turned into short stories. In 2016 she finally brought all her self-confidence together and entered a short story competition for the first time. This first anthology - and all those that followed it - mean the world to her. When Martina is not writing, she cuddles with her army of dogs and cats, fangirls about her newest ship or reads a book from her kilometer-long “To be read” list.
