My Story

Well met, fair adventurer, my name is Timandra and I read. A lot. And I’m always on the lookout for new stories to consume. I have a love for dark fantasy and I’m often found writing one because I couldn’t quite get my hands on the kind of gritty, action and emotion heavy, women-centric, character driven book I really love reading.

So, I started writing my own. However, it’s a teensy tiny bit hard to carve out the time to write late at night when I should be sleeping, so I take a while to get novels out there.

But I believe that I have to write. Not despite the circumstances, but because of them. This is the one thing I need to refuel, recharge, and realize who I am. 

So. Who am I?

Glad you asked! Here’s a non-comprehensive list of random facts. It’s short and more fun than a proper biography. You’re welcome.

11 Random things about me:

1. I often test for either INTJ or INFJ on the Myer-Briggs personality spectrum. Best ISTJ of all times? Batman!
2. I was born in Germany, but on British ground. (Interesting 1980’s legal technicalities.)
3. I hate pizza. It is known.
4. My favorite reading genres are Fantasy and Cook Books.
5. I’m an Enneagram 9w1. The One is strong with me. 
6. I used to play Everquest II online, but then … (wait for it!) I took an arrow to the knee. Joke. I became a mom and my free time went down to … what’s free time again?
7. My parenting style is … I do my best, but sometimes use YouTube as a babysitter AND promise my kids dessert if they eat their dinner.
8. My goal in life is to leave behind as little as possible that my children have to throw away.

11. I’m a Pisces.
