The Salvador Dali Formula | #AuthorInterview with author, psychotherapist, & professor of philosophy Dushica Labovich
That is how this book is described, and it is as thrilling as the description. Trust me a little bit more about the author before we jump into conversation. She is a novelist from Montenegro, and her books have been translated into several languages. She holds a master's degree in philosophy and psychotherapy and is a lover of metaphysics art and philosophy of ancient cultures. I don't know about you, but I think we're in store for a really interesting conversation

Did this book present new challenges that were exciting for you as a writer? Or do you feel like there's something about the genre of psychological thriller where you felt like you could take all of your experience and interest and put it all into one book? I'd love to hear more

I have an ongoing series here on Swell and also a newsletter called Aska Failure in which I write and talk about all things failure related, and many writers tend to know a lot about failure or rejection as part of the writing process, and I'm curious if you have any experiences or bits of wisdom gleaned from some of the periods or chapters in your life where failure or rejection were at all a part of your journey, and what you learned from those periods, particularly in relation to your writing or creative life

Or maybe it's not a piece of advice that was given to you, but a piece of advice that you would share. Now. Now that you've written this latest book and from everything that you've learned thus far

A certain food, a new place that you travel, anything. We would love to know what's currently on your heart and mind and also if we can keep an eye out for another book or what you're potentially working on next, or what may be in store for us. Thank you so much
