About the Blog and The Author
Hello! My name is Reelika Pedak. I am an indie author/artist from Estonia, Viljandi, that also narrates her own audiobooks.
When I first started narrating my audiobooks I was very insecure about my voice. Up until that pint I was unable to even sing in front of other people because of anxiety. This blog and sharing my creative work with other people has proved to be an act of rebellion against my fears.
I have been writing for as long as I can remember. I didn’t speak more than 3-word sentences up until the first grade and always found my imaginary worlds more interesting than socializing. I enjoy my alone time, wine, chocolate and coffee while writing. Am currently working on my first novel “the Girl That Dissolved Into the Air” that talks about a lady with dissociative tendencies. Life in her youth with toxic parents, bullying, bad friends, and first signs of her mental illness.
I created this blog in the Spring of 2022 to make a home for, and share my creativity and those worlds with others. I hope that you can find pieces that resonate with you and that give you some sort of positive emotion.
I am also a singer for a modern melodic metal band called Chaos in Spring. Find us on streaming services such as YouTube and Spotify.
Fun Fact: I have a name sister, so if you google me there are two of us.

Short Story – His Eyes Were a Poem
This is my six-st short story in the "Romance and All That" section. Since starting this corner it has appeared to me that I am literally unable to write happy stories. I thought about changing the name but it isn't being lovesick romantic? It used to be. Anyway "His...
Poetry Book no. II – Dragon of Alacanmore
My second poetry book "Dragon of Alcanmore" was born after I watched a documentary on Syphilis in the Victorian ages. I know, whatever writers get their inspiration from. Seems like a weird little fact but it also set the fantasy-like scene that reminds me of the 19th...
Six-Sentence Story – Dead Poet
Another week and another six-sentence story, a dead poet... Hmm... I wonder if this one will be about the poets or the readers. Perhaps a little bit of both... but I guess we will find out soon. Listening as I write this one: Vitali - Chaconne (live) played by Emilie...
Trying To Make Money With Creative Work
Last year I started this blog with high hopes, still knowing that these things take time, I quit my job in November (or was it October) to fully submerge myself in my writing and creative work. This year I am starting to slowly lose hope that by the deadline I have...
Dir en grey Review / Essay
In my last blog posts about music, I spoke about instrumental metal and my own band Chaos in Spring in detail. This time I wanted to review three bands that have shaped my taste in music. I will do three posts on three different days: SHOKRAN review, Persefone review,...
