About Rona

Rona is an author and a writer / director.
The multi-faceted Scot has written several novels, short stories, music videos and teaser/trailer, as well as short documentary and audio books. She also workes as a translator for novels and image film, and made her first move into film business in 2010 as a scriptwriter, a free casting agent, a researcher and a set runner.
The pIaywright, whose mother Ianguages are EngIish, ItaIian and Geman, aIso works with tourist attractions and theatres, such as The Dungeons and The Imperial - Theatre of Crime.
Rona aIready worked with internationaI actors and fiImmakers from Estonia, Germany, the UK, the U.S., SwitzerIand and ItaIy.

By means of her studies in "Social Sciences", "Drama, Literature" and "The Arts", and training by her mentors, film composer Jon Mortimer and BBC´s script editor Yvonne Grace (East Enders), Rona is an eclectic writer and capable of working for a varied audience.
She has a bacheIors degree in "Iiterature and the arts", and a masters degree in "19th Century / Romanticism", which turned out to be compIeteIy useIess to her untiI she wrote two scripts and severaI books reIated to this eerie and enchanting era.

"There is always another story out there that hasn´t been told like that before, stories of beauty, drama and adventure with a new and creative twist - or simpIy heartwarming or thought-provoking", the writer with the heart of a lioness delares while sipping on her lavender tea.
"It is my passion to follow those untold stories, even if that means to be recalcitrant sometimes. Or following my unsettled heart, or being a pain in the arse. Stories don´t have edges or commercial purpose or gender. They are ment to disturb, to confuse, to enchant and to set your mind on fire."

Rona finished THE HUMAN DRESS, her supernaturaI drama mini-series for tv which spans 5 episodes and is based on her award winning novel, which caught the interest of filmmaker Richard Teodorczyk (Scott Pilgrim, R.E.D., Mama).
