As a writer, Anastasia loves all things fiction. Being exposed to Tolkien as a teenager, she remembers reading LOTR everywhere, hardly taking her nose out of the book. He remains her main mentor to this day. Anastasia finished primary school in Poland, where she was introduced to all the magical Scandinavian stories and legends. Her love for Finnish fiction is what compelled her to begin writing. Anastasia is in love with all that has to do with film-making, is somewhat a weird mixture of old and new (the lady and a rebel), draws a little, and snowboards. When she’s not traveling in her Tardis, Ana loves taking evening strolls in her “Mind Palace” and occasionally popping by The Prancing Pony, humming to the Song Of Ice and Fire.
