TRAIN FOR HEAVEN ON EARTH

Dear reader! 

 I am inviting you to dive into the world of a young teacher, accompanied by a faithful canine friend. She is on the quest to find her purpose in a world full of false images, illusions and secrets - but also love, friendship, adventure, humor, spirituality, ‘coincidences’ and revelations …

The physical, emotional, mental, and above all spiritual journey begins with an overture on a beautiful Croatian Island, explores the lives of the people of Slovenia, and also includes some fuego rhythms from European Hawaii – Canary Islands.

The people the heroine meets and the unplanned adventures break the ideas of a modern woman and man, romance, school system, media, spirituality ... She realizes that nothing is as it seems.
If you want to board on this train be ready for a varied journey with nine stations:

STATION 1: THE SEA
STATION 2: SOCIAL NETWORK DATING
STATION 3: EROTICS
STATION 4: DYING BY INSTALMENTS
STATION 5: ASCENDING INTO THE SPHERE OF SPIRITS
STATION 6: MATURITY EXAM
STATION 7: NEW BEGINNINGS
STATION 8: THE HEAVEN ON EARTH
STATION 9: RETURN

The novel has a first-person narrator and contains several genres - social, women, romance, adventure, spiritual, and a lot of autobiographical and psychological stories mixed with my imagination ...
 

But I followed my grandmother's advice and made it simple - just like I listened an advice from one of my favorite authors:
"I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom."
Clarissa Pinkola Estés

And who am I? The author? 

My homeland is Slovenia. In 2008 I finished studies of Slovenian language and Sociology of Culture in Ljubljana with a thesis on female literary characters in modern novels. Since then I teach Slovenian and write.

My first short stories were published in some erotic magazines and in Collection of erotic stories: Touches and promises (2011).
I continued with different literature.
Short story Try Again and once more and one more time: Mladika, literary contest in Trieste (Italy, 2012) – 1st prize.
Novella The Rainbow Year 2013/3013: The Annual Collection of Slovenian Fiction Stardust 2012.
Blogging for my websites Playground of Life (2013-2019), Dance of life&dreams (2020- ).
Train for heaven on Earth is my debut novel.

After many years this gift from the universe that changed my life is here for you too. Like a good soul stew, it took a long time to make – 27 years to grow and prepare, 7 years to cook, and 6 to cool and be just right.

First comments:

“So interesting, so juicy, so authentic that I could not stop reading it to the end. Even, the parts where the heroine is sad or disappointed are written with humor. Some funny paragraphs and pious wishes made me laugh out loud ...”
Ana, language professor

“I am thrilled! I do not know the last time I read a book that grabbed my attention so much. After reading it, I decided to say NO to everything that was stealing my energy and precious time!”
Slavica, Assistant Head of Shue Store Sales

Special thanks to Alexander N., my oldest student (he was 75) and truly inspiring person, who proofread this book for free: Thank you for everything! I know you are watching from heaven above …
His words: “You managed it, and made it beautifully!!! For me, as a man, it was quite interesting … Never forbid yourself to dream!”

The same goes for you, dear reader.
