Autor

Ever since Ruby read her first book, she dreamed of writing her own. Growing up in a small town in Bosnia, she set aside that dream for a while. Like many of her peers, she enrolled in medical school, only to drop out a year later and move to Graz, Austria, to join her partner, who studied there. Ruby spent two years learning German to continue her medical school but ended up pursuing English and American Studies at the University of Graz, where she rekindled her love for creative writing. Juggling work and studies, she never dared to publish until now. At 26 years old, with a BA in English, Ruby finally leaped, thanks to story.one. Although fluent in four languages, she writes creatively in English. Ruby describes herself as a liberal Muslim feminist presently pursuing a Master's degree at Graz University. She currently lives in Graz with her partner and their two cats Olly and Tinky.
