Athina is author of fantasy, dark fantasy, paranormal, adventure, crime and occasionally she writes short stories for children. When she doesn’t write, she thinks about writing, makes weird scenarios about the story she is creating or just read a book that will stick in her head for a while.

For her, writing is a very big part of her life since she started creating stories at the age of 9 and never stopped. Everything can inspire her, from a book, a movie, a sight or a sound and she can piss you off by telling you how a movie will end.

She has finished writing a mystery and a YA dark fantasy novel which she plans to make a trilogy. Now she is working on the sequel.

You can follow Athina on twitter @Athina_DK or follow her blog http://between

Yes, I know. I recently finished the fourth book. It took me about two months! But I am a huge fan. I'm telling you though, the third book it's the best. You're not that far!:)
