I grew up in Antalya, Turkey

I currently live in İstanbul, Turkey

I was raised in Turkish. (languages)

I read and write in Turkish, English. (languages)

I write Fiction, Short_stories, Play_scripts. (genres)

I write for private, unborn readers.

Reason why I write: To express myself, to be liked and understood

My favourite authors are Stephen King, Taylor jenkins reid, Sabahattin ali, Sylvia plath.

My favourite stories on The GOAT PoL include The House , One Day ,

My favourite subject(s) to write about include Love, Loneliness, Conflicts, Mother-daughter relationships.

The most difficult part I find about writing is I think the starting point. It is difficult for me to just open Word and try to write anything even if I have a solid idea.

Most rewarding moment as a writer for me is The first time I have completed a short play to submit to a festival, I was really happy that my friends and people I look up to liked it and that I could finish something that I could call mine.
