One thought on “Ostthüringer Zeitung – Mit 15 schon Autorin: Jenaerin veröffentlicht nach drei Jahren ihr erstes Buch

  1. Chapeau - with 15 authors in the German Literary Society as publishers! My respect - and for those who are interested: the young author is offering a reading round at 'Lovelybooks' - it's certainly worth taking part if you like fantasy and young adult books (volume 1 of a planned trilogy). Have fun with your writing!!!
