Clara Thinks to Us: Q&As

Three years have passed since I published my first book: Clara Thinks to Us, a novel of hope from the memories of an old lady. It's based on my life experience with optimistic twists to painful experiences. It was a way to overcome my fear of death, amongst many other cathartic benefits.

I am grateful for all the feedback and readers who have been interested in finding out more about this old woman. She lived in four different countries and ended up thinking, almost at random, about her past. Our current present is in the novel's past because it is set in 2055. You can download the ebook from Amazon.

Without further ado, here are six questions and answers about Clara Thinks to Us.

Q2: What was Clara’s most powerful provocation when moving to Cyprus.

A2: The sedentary ways of the locals, their attachment to the land of their ancestors and the sentimental value they attached to trees.

Q3: How did she walk away from her dream after 3 years of working so hard on becoming an online marketing consultant? How did she find her real truth and let go without grudges or feeling like a failure?

A3: She used the knowledge and experience for her true calling of defending homemaking as a valid and valuable choice for modern women, spreading the truth about holistic medicine and finding her tribe. She admitted failure as an entrepreneur on digital marketing and then embraced public speaking and her private practice of The Wave. Admitting failure provided the leverage to turn the page and start fresh. She followed her gut feeling to find her truth by admitting what was not in line with her values.

Q4: How did she successfully integrate into Cyprus, I.e what was her turning point. ?

A4: once she surpassed the longest period of time she had ever Lived in one place and she was truthful to her desire of belonging, a feeling she never had the chance to develop due to the nomadic lifestyle of her parents. Integration came as a result of establishing connections with people on her same “wavelength”, members of her tribe. She knew that wherever she’d go, true friends were always scarce but they were so valuable. Also, her children who didn’t inherit her ability to adapt to changing environments as quickly as she did, made her realize the importance of settling down in one place and making it home. 

Q5: If Clara could do it all again. Would she, in all honesty, change anything?

A5: No. Clara is the author’s best case scenario.

Q6: If Clara could name three things in order of what made her happiest in her life what were they?

A6: 1 Diego, Rose and George.
