Lucid dreamer-Jasmin, a Polish artist who immigrated to the Netherlands, embarks on a new challenge of a life in New York. Her dreams about the ancient oracle-Sarah, her own reincarnations-are gone. In their place come dreams about … vampires. A terrifying world with rules that influence Jasmin's reality once again, where her communication with loved ones fails her. Misunderstandings favor a deepening isolation from a cruel environment. Will Jasmin become a vampire, or will Sarah-busy watching non-humans on Earth-show up again to save her?
About the author
Joanna M. Pilatowicz is an adult's coach, dancer, dance teacher, choreographer, author, abstract painter, and recording artist. She has lived in Poland, The Netherlands and currently resides in Germany.
Her master thesis, "Expansion Through Dance," explored the concept of using dance as a healing media, positively influencing not only body, but mind and soul as well.
Life in the Netherlands inspired her to write her first short stories, in Polish language, hiding some of observed reality behind the veil of fantasy. As she says, "Passing the borders of reality, I would say I am entering the world of fantasy, dreamland, and paranormal; however it is all still connected to everyday life."
"I was always drawn by what's invisible to a human eye. At the same time, probably from a desire to understand my own Self and motives more, I started to write diaries which unfolded in an unexpected way. So I just followed it."
"The supernatural creatures in my books and paranormal aspects present there are my own ways of expressing my reality, linking non - fiction with a feeling world as well as adding some sort of higher force to it."
"It is my own metaphor for different roles from our so-called subpersonalities that perhaps want to share their story with us, in order for us to grow, explore, experience or have a more fulfilling life. I do my best to follow these inner voices, giving them space and grabbing their message."
