About Sylvia Massara
Sylvia Massara is a multi-genre author based in Sydney, Australia. She loves to dabble in wacky love affairs, drama, murder, scifi (and anything else that takes her fancy) over good coffee.
Born in Argentina, from Italian descent (with a bit of Spanish and Swiss lineage thrown in) and transplanted to Australia at age ten, Sylvia describes herself as a bit of a "moggie" cat by way of mixed pedigree. She is also a citizen of the world as she has travelled widely throughout most of her life and she's the proud owner of three passports.
As with most authors Sylvia draws on her varied experience from the often puzzling tapestry of life. Sylvia loves nature and communing with the animal kingdom (as her pampered kitty, Mia, will attest) and vicariously through the many characters in her head. Occasionally, however, she will venture into the world of humans, albeit for a limited time, as she prefers the unconditional and genuine company that animals bring to this planet. Having said this, Sylvia enjoys the time she spends with her six-year-old niece immersing herself in their many creative projects. She believes the artistic creativity in children is both spontaneous and direct from the soul.
Sylvia's most recent novel, The Stranger, is a scifi apocalyptic tale of moralistic issues which explores the fight of love versus evil in the cosmos. The novel was inspired by David Bowie (Sylvia's lifelong idol) and Sylvia dedicated the novel in his memory.
Currently Sylvia has a number of projects on the go, but she's waiting for her "muse" to settle on one.
