Bistra Stoimenova is also known as Бистра Стоименова.

I started writing at age 11. Then, with all the enthusiasm I had, I started to invent worlds of my own.

It has been like that ever since. Characters live in my head and line up to tell their stories. I completed my first novel at 17 (100 pages of handwritten text I wrote in-between and after classes) but then needed to take some break from writing and school and university life took their toll on me.

8 years and 4 university degree certificates later, I came back to writing. The first three books I wrote are a fan-fic of my favourite urban fantasy series. You can read them here in Bulgarian. I still post a chapter each week, as the volume is huge.

Then I moved to other genres, as I have a lot of stories in my head. The first book I published - 112 - is actually the sixth I wrote.

I usually write contemporary fiction and I have a knack for crime and mystery but I would not shun fantasy (which is my current WIP) or funny short stories. I even write the occasional poem.

I am Bulgarian, so most of the things I write are in Bulgarian, but I also write in English, from time to time (as you can see from the blog posts).
