Stjepan Varesevac Cobets interview
AUTHOR INTERVIEW
A little introduction:
My name is Stjepan Varesevac Cobets. I was born and live in Split,
Croatia.
When did your love of books begin?
My love for books began when I was a little boy
and started reading fairy tales. The books thrilled me as they took me to beautiful
places of imagination that I could never visit.
When did you start to have the wish to become an author?
At first, I had no desire to become an author. From the fourteenth
year since I wrote my first poem, I have been writing poetry for a long time
because it has relaxed me. In the meantime, I wrote two novels and a few
stories, but no one in Croatia was interested in publishing anything. When I collected a
mountain of diaries and a lot of paper I wrote in my thirties, I decided that
it would be nice to put it together in one collection of poetry. I published it
in a free edition in Croatia. That was in 2005. Maybe I desired to become an author started
when I published my first book in 2015 in English on Amazon, then I
spontaneously published and translated my other books and stories. So in the last five
years, I have become an indie author, although writing is my hobby.
How have you found the process for becoming an author?
I have always loved writing and inventing stories. It was a pleasure for
me; I guess all the authors start like that. Now, I don't know if there is any
process here. I think it's love for the written word.
What would you say to those wanting to become an author?
It is essential to write and learn how to write
better. I am still learning to write.
Tell us about your book/books:
I never knew how to talk about my books, for my
books are better talked about by readers who have read them. But I mostly write
poetry, fairy tales, fables, and science fiction. I write about
everything in poetry, especially about love and the world around me. As far as science
fiction is concerned, Godeena's novel is military with a touch of thriller and
action. The book The Dream of the Forest is a post-apocalyptic adventure and romance. Novellas The Collector
is also post-apocalyptic, and Black Seeds is also military with a great deal of
ecology.
What do you love about the writing/reading community?
I can create new worlds and take readers on a
journey of my imagination.
If you could say anything to your readers what would it be?
Read everything you like, at least that's how I do
it, if the book is interesting to me, I'll read it.
Where can people connect with you?
