Nadja Ebner
Sem ljubiteljica knjig, pisane besede, narave in življenja v drugačnih kulturnih kontekstih. Sobivam s partnerjem, tremi otroki, psom, suhimi južinami, komarji (neprostovoljno), osami, ki si gradijo bivališča na žaluzijah, in mačkom, ki v resnici živi pri sosedih (krivim našega psa – ni zaradi mene, čeprav sem ga enkrat stuširala s protiklopnim šamponom).

Jaka Tomc
When Jaka was three years old, sitting in his grandfather's lap, he wanted to do what his grandpa was doing. So, he learned to read. Starting with obituaries.
Buy books on Amazon
Reading soon led to writing. At an early age, Jaka realized he was better at writing than talking. Even today, he doesn't like small talk. But his characters do, and they're pretty good at it. Jaka believes that this is one of life's ironies.
His favorite part of the year is summer, his favorite fruit is strawberries, and his favorite book is Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke. Probably because after four decades of living in his current body, he's still waiting for his childhood to end. He wouldn't mind if it never does.
Currently, he lives with his family in Ljubljana, Slovenia. -

Ste vedeli, da ima ena od mojih knjig kar dva konca? Da ima ena namesto naslovov poglavij horoskope? Da v eni od knjig glavna junakinja potuje skozi čas in se znajde v kar nekaj od svetovnih katastrof; med drugim doživi tudi potres v Ljubljani. Da izumim izraz revnomanija in ga pojasnim?
