Allen Carr
Allen Carr was a British author and the founder of the global Allen Carr’s Easyway method, renowned for helping millions overcome smoking and other addictions. Born in Putney, London in 1934, Carr began smoking at 18 during National Service and struggled with the habit for over three decades. A qualified accountant, he finally quit in 1983 following a revelatory visit to a hypnotherapist. The experience didn’t directly cause him to quit, but it led to two key insights: that smoking was simply a form of nicotine addiction, and that withdrawal symptoms were minor and psychological in nature. These revelations inspired Carr to develop a revolutionary approach to quitting, one that did not rely on willpower, scare tactics, or substitution thera

Petronela Rotar nu are biografie literară. Maximum una pseudoliterară, cu indulgenţă. S-a născut la ţară, ca veşnicia lui Blaga, undeva lîngă Braşov, şi a făcut naveta la oraş. La şcoală, aia cîtă a făcut. La liceu, i-au apărut cîteva poezii în revista literară a şcolii, iar ăsta ar fi putut fi un început bun pentru o biografie literară, dar nu a fost. Apoi nu a mai apărut decît la televizor şi în ziare. Şi acolo, de partea greşită a microfonului. A fost reporter, editor sau prezentator la staţiile locale ale Pro TV, Antena 1, Realitatea. S-a apucat de două facultăţi, Litere şi Sociologie, şi nu a terminat-o pe niciuna. Are de gînd să nu o termine nici pe a treia. S-a apucat şi de doi copii, iar pe ăştia încă îi desăvîrşeşte.

Je suis née le en 1977 près de Bordeaux, où je vis toujours.
J’ai commencé à dévorer les livres dès que j’ai su lire. La Bibliothèque rose, la Bibliothèque verte, puis de nombreux romans qui me faisaient vivre mille et une vies.
J’avais huit ans quand j’ai écrit mon premier roman sur un cahier de brouillon vert au dos duquel figuraient des tables de multiplication. Il parlait d’amour, de mer et d’un soleil qui mettait trente pages à se coucher.
En sixième, je répondais « Écrire des livres » à la question « Que voulez-vous faire plus tard ? » sur les fiches que l’on remplissait en début d’année. Pas à chaque fois, parce qu’il m’est aussi arrivé de vouloir être styliste. Ça n’a pas duré longtemps : tout le monde v -
