S2E5: Chanti - Thrills, Chills, and ADHD: A Writer's Journey
Manage episode 410276095 series 3489666
Hey there, folks! Welcome back to Wondering Zoe, where we get up close and personal with some seriously cool people. Today, we've got Chanti in the hot seat—a writer, event wizard, and all-around awesome human. She only found out about her ADHD later on, and the way she figured it out is downright hilarious! You've gotta hear this story!
When chatting about her childhood, Chanti dropped this gem: "I was a total charmer as a kid, but let's be real, I was also a bit of a weirdo." She opened up about her ADHD journey from way back then till now. Back in the day, there was zilch support for neurodivergent students, and awareness? Forget about it! She had to navigate it all without much confidence in her abilities, no matter how awesome they were!
It wasn't until Chanti stumbled into a creative writing course that her passion for storytelling truly ignited. Did Chanti jump straight into the writing gig after her college stint? Nope! Despite hitting up an arts college in the UK to fine-tune her writing chops, she had to hustle with a bunch of other jobs before she could really immerse herself in the writing world. Now, fast forward a bit, and Chanti's got some seriously killer novels under her belt—literally. She published Angel Manor (Lucifer Falls Book 1) and Doll Manor (Lucifer Falls Book 2) and other works. If you're into heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat horror reads, Chanti's your gal. And hey, if you're itching to check out more of Chanti's work, head over to her website at https://www.chantalnoordeloos.com/ and prepare to be spooked!
