I'm bad at writing about myself, I much rather write about my characters and stories, but I shall try to lure you in with a few words. Opal Anne Rochel is my pen name, but, in my other life, I'm a software engineer. My interest vary a lot: computer science, writing, drawing, astronomy and learning about stuff in general... anything from neuroscience and medicine to physics and beyond. I started writing in English (not my native language) when I discovered RPing and I find it a lot more generous than my own mother tongue (Romanian). Diamonds of the past is my first book and I do hope you enjoy reading it and I'm running out of characters.
