Meet Marisha Kazaryan
Marisha Kazaryan
I was a storyteller for as long as I can remember myself. Inventing stories, characters, and worlds was something that came naturally. After completing my degree in English language and literature I worked as a translator and interpreter for quite some time, but to nobody’s surprise one day I turned my career in a different direction and became a writer. Things that make my day a win (besides a good story, of course): animals, good coffee, good music, good films, and the scent of the sea in the sunshine.
