Hey there, I'm Crina!
I'm an independent author. I write and publish adult fiction, non-fiction, and kids books.
I love living in the arms of nature and plan on having my own food forest — a creative retreat.
I occasionally interview artists and share their work with the world using my YouTube and
other social media channels.
In 2012 I graduated from Canterbury Christ Church University with a degree in
Film, Radio, and Television.
​
In 2016 I published my first non-fiction book about the woodcarving work of my father,
and in 2017 I released my first novel (which was banned in Germany, Austria, and
Australia for a while). The novel was translated into French in 2018.
In 2019, Whispers and Other Strange Stories came out.
​
My most recent book, published in 2020, is Pash and the Blue Bicycle.
​
I am currently working on Midnight Tears (the sequel to my debut novel),
Tender is the Rain (a standalone psychological thriller), and other short stories.
Currently, I live in Manchester, the United Kingdom.
I am originally from Vrancea, Romania.

Luke and Allison Evans live a happy life in the wild and beautiful Carpathian Mountains.
But when their lives are torn apart by a dreadful event, Luke is left on his own to
try and make sense of his existence.
With Hugo, his Chocolate Retriever as his sole companion, Luke chooses alcohol and old music to find oblivion and run away from pain. However, a storm changes everything again when it brings a mysterious woman with a baby at Luke's front door,
forcing him to give life another chance.
Not far away, Eve Darkwood has her own methods of dealing with life. And death
doesn't seem to stop in her tracks for too long.
And there's John, too, a man of many pleasures, broken and lost in his own way.
Their lives will intertwine and never be the same again.
