Young Writers - Catalina Fometici

We are surrounded by amazing young writers and it is our duty as literature lovers, to acknowledge and speak aout them. Catalina Fometici is a perfect example of synergistic writer: her art is visual, musical and literary, just as her passions. Their blend helps making her writing like a breath of fresh air rarely found in the gothic genre.I must admit, I admire the way she encapsulates within her writing some of the ancient history's myths and legends.
I encourage you to read her blog, Părul Medusei (engl. Medusa's Hair) and see her drawings.

Here are some links to her published writings:
Oameni fără fețe
Doamna cu pisica albă
Răsărit de soare
Jertfă pentru marea liniștită
Dincolo de umbre
Chipul Euridicei for which she also received a Best Story award
Gheţurile Marelui Nord
Dracul din Bucegi
Cealaltă, dintre gheţuri
În zori, pădurea era albastră…
Pentru toate comorile iadului
În urma lor, doar flăcările…

She was also recently published in the Romanian Gothic anthology “Dincolo de noapte - 12 Fețe ale goticului”  (engl. "Beyond The Night - 12 Gothic Faces"), about which I had a previous blog post with more details and links.

Read, it is good for the soul!
Alex.
