Author & Book Coach

Delise Torres _ Official Author Photo

I grew up in Puerto Rico, watching telenovelas and re-enacting scenes with my Barbies. Once I outgrew my dolls, I turned to daydreaming. After I moved to Germany in 2012, I was unable to find a job and I turned to writing the stories in my head and discovered my life’s passion.

As I’ve developed as a writer, I’ve enjoyed beta reading for others, trying to figure out what works and what doesn’t. Because of that, I became an Author Accelerator certified book coach. I hope to help other writers bring their ideas to life.

When not writing or coaching, you can find me trying to time-manage my life, singing, reading, and streaming shows and movies.
