Eve Pokrass

My name is Eve Pokrass. I was born on June 18, 2009, in Geneva, Switzerland. I’m British and currently live in Düsseldorf, Germany, where I go to Goethe Gymnasium and am in the 10th grade. I speak English, German, and Macedonian, and I’m learning French.

Writing is my passion. I especially love writing poems, children’s books, and fiction. I’ve also written articles for the school newspaper. I practice ballet and I play the piano.

I’m excited to submit my latest book “Spirit of the Château,” for you to read. My inspiration for this story comes from spending many holidays in an old château in the French countryside, where ghosts were a common topic. I found the idea of ghosts fascinating, especially the belief that they can’t move on until they’re forgiven. I think this connects to how we often feel stuck by our own mistakes until we make things right and act responsibly.
