Autorenporträt
Layla Ylenia is a queer writer based in Wiesbaden, Germany. Born on May 1st, 1997, she is autistic and has CPTSD and BPD, among other mental and physical chronic illnesses. Layla changed schools six times, attending a school for mentally ill children twice. Her childhood and teenage years were incredibly traumatic, shaping her worldview and inspiring her writing. Writing has always been her strength, exploring dreams and reality, horror and existence, capturing beauty in small moments. Inspired by Kafka, Plath, Baldwin, Murakami, and Oliver, she aspires to touch people deeply. Her Mother describes her as honest, generous and deeply caring.Living with very severe ME/CFS, she often loses speech and cant endure light, living in a soundproof room. As her body allows, she writes to prove she exists, hoping readers will educate themselves on ME/CFS and find solace in her work.
