I'm Petra G.I write contemporary magical realism stories because I need written proof that ordinary life is truly charming.

Petra G. writes fiction in which modern meets magical. She's a marketing professional and the content creator behind @thecreatorsdiary. She has a soft spot for artists, dogs, and ceiling-high bookcases with a rolling ladder. She lives in Budapest, Hungary with her partner and their daughter.

A young woman alone, sipping her gin and tonic at an office Christmas party, fighting off 'I don't know you... You must work at Payroll' smiles, and 'the CEO is giving funnier and funnier speeches every year' claps...A writer sitting over a sweating glass of an icy red wine, struggling with crossed-out sentences and the occasional, concerned glances of others in a café...A woman in her twenties, a tight black skirt, a pale pink blouse, and a red 'I can do this' bag on her shoulder, hanging onto her Americano as tightly as possible—she still has 25 minutes till the interview.Drink Talks is a flash fiction collection that revolves around drinks, from an espresso to a gin and tonic.Available as an ebook in bookstores online.

A young girl with a plump cat, a small boy and his ladybug, a married couple on a neighbour-watch, a Dad and his son going on a balcony expedition, and more.They are you and me, coping with the peculiar everyday of a pandemic the best we can, with some humour and love, irony and daydreaming, and yes, troubled and fallible, staying human the only way possible. Living life.Available as PDF ebook for free download on Gumroad.

These are the publishing professionals I adore and whose advice helped me the most, whether it's about writing, editing, or learning about the book market.
