my hobbies are on my spare time watching tv and rescuing animals in need of love and shelter. ........... I love spending time with my lovely animals that i have a home 3 cats and 2 dogs.
Sonam- How did you get started doing what you’re doing now? How did you discover your passion?
Marina-after i suffer in silence for years and watch my self-esteem and my pride slowly dissipate, i wanted to share my story with the world.
Sonam- why did you select this type of content for your book?

Sonam-How do you cope with all the changes and stay on the edge?
Marina-not very well. I close my self I was isolated from friends and family I wanted to be alone. I was into much pain and it was the only way I could cope with it.
Sonam-what made you write this book?
Marina-They say writing helps you heal. After waking up from that nightmare, a lot of things in my life have changed. i wanted to tell the world my story so i can heal from the nightmare this man put me through. I wrote it for myself at first, as a healing mechanism, but very quickly the therapy became an aspiration to use as a tool for women around the world.
Sonam-what were the failures you faces on this journey?
Marina- the failures i faced was to re-lived all the journey of the abuse. It took me over three years to complete this book. It was very hard for me to write.
