About me
Hi,
A lot of my writing on Medium is autobiographical and based on my personal experiences. I’m sure you will be able to get to know who I am by reading my stories and comics. However, I rarely show my face and talk about my deeper motivations and life philosophy (or when I do, those posts don’t get too many views, oh well…). That is why I am sharing this more personal interview with you (see below) and a few links where you can find my work.
My interview
I was interviewed by MakeStoryboard, where I talked about my comics, linguistic research, and my creative process. I explain why I create comics and how they help me process life experiences, as well as how science and art together help me make sense of reality.
If you scrolled down my Medium profile, you can probably tell I am interested in many different topics. That is also why my social media presence is all over the place and might look slightly different on different platforms. In the interview, you can see that in my mind all these things are connected…

My Medium publications
“Ana’s Stories” is sort of like my main publication where I write primarily about autobiographical stories, usually including some advice or humor in comics about psychology, mental health, and ADHD.
“Bedtime stories for adults and children” is my storytelling publication, where I usually publish more emotional comics about life, love, and loss.
“Language explained” is my open-access publication about language and linguistics, which I ambitiously imagined as breaking new ground in linguistics outreach (sigh). I’m planning to make it more regular in the near future, so stay tuned. :)
In case you are wondering, my most viewed and read Medium story so far is…
Hope to see you around! If you like what I do, let me know by clapping and commenting :)
