Anișoara Laura Mustețiu

Two things made my heart leap with joy during adolescence: reading books and writing poetry. Even now, as I write, I can still picture that young girl. She would lose herself in a book, her face illuminated by a quiet smile. The story filled the solitude, offering her a temporary refuge—one that shielded her fragile soul. As if, even back then, she already knew a precious secret: time and books have the power to heal.

WELCOME, DEAR READER

I extend my hand to you… inviting you to step with me into the still vibrant and stirring realm of stories—often inspired by life’s realities, romantic adventures, or impossible loves; tales of triumphs and struggles that defy defeat. Perhaps the whisper of events will send a shiver through you, or the magic of places will enchant you into dreams. Maybe you’ll find solace at the edge of a spring of reflections, under the wings of deep thoughts. Or you may rest beside the flames of emotions, next to the warmth that flows between the lines. And if, at some point, a tear slips down your cheek, may its dew refresh your soul—with new realizations, with a new light.

THE STORY OF MY LIFE

My life is far from simple—it is turbulent, ever-shifting. Yet, I can say it is rich in experiences and lessons learned, each contributing to my success, both professionally and personally. I could compare my life to a powerful ocean, relentless and deep, where countless moments have dissolved into its waves. But not all moments disappear. The important ones remain, living quietly beneath the surface of memory. And then, one day, I decided to give them a voice—transforming them into stories, love novels, literature for the soul and mind. (BETWEEN KISS AND PAIN)

LITERARY INSPIRATION

Throughout my life, books have been a sacred haven. They have allowed me to step into their spiritual world, to rest, to renew myself; they have offered me the fruits of wisdom and emotion, inspiring me to discover and understand the mystery of writing. Yet, after wandering through literary universes, after reading creations that move and inspire us, we always return home—to the place where the spirit illuminates our path toward imagination, believed to be infinite

LOVE AND IMAGINATION IN CONTEMPORARY LITERATURENĂ

„We must never be afraid to go too far, because truth lies beyond fear.” (Marcel Proust)

When I discover something new and good in life, my existence bursts into an ineffable joy. Like a foaming ocean stirred by a passing storm, sensations rise in dizzying swirls before cascading into a flood of invigorating drops along the inner paths of my being. From a similar essence, my stories take shape.
At their core, while imagination weaves its magic into words, the spirit—often thirsty to stir the earth and the universe—revolts, shaken by testimonies and truths, reflecting, discerning, and finally bringing new realizations to light. One key element in my stories is the past, often appearing like a mirage shimmering in the mirror of time, calling the wandering soul to lose itself in past joys and sorrows. But the mind does not sleep. It seeks a beneficial balance in the present, crossing forests, rivers, and the valleys of the sky in search of all that is good and beautiful. In these journeys, love for people, nature, and the universe becomes a magical, healing symbiosis.
“In everything that people do, God walks beside them. Watching in silence, He lets them live their lives shaped by their own actions. Beyond human laws, there is a truth that exists between conscience and suffering, between reality and illusion, between blessing and sin. Truth may sometimes be ambiguous, mysterious, yet it remains a testimony through time. It lingers like a sculpture with shattered hands, buried beneath ruins. It survives. It exists. Truth waits to be discovered.” (THE PRICE OF HONOUR).

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Further reflecting on the significance of written books, I could say that they describe a unique concept of the self—a “self” that finds a new meaning in pain. A new perspective emerges when one channels the energy born from suffering to fight, to overcome, or to create something greater. Along this journey, the self discovers a profound sense of identity, of life, and an unexpected force of healing. As a result, the published books stand as testimony to triumph over the harshest trials (BETWEEN KISS AND PAIN)

HARNESSING INNER STRENGTH

Often, the lines of these stories radiate the idea of turning suffering into strength, its metamorphosis into power…
“I would give anything for a breath of fresh air! Anything! Except hope—hope is all I have. I feel its force, its undeniable presence. Deep within, it harbors an active volcano of emotions: ambition, aspiration, release, fury, desires, defiance, humility, suffering. All these emotions live within it. I have gathered them over time. But now, the moment has come for them to rise to the surface, to pour forth, to become the guiding energy of this night.”(FRAGMENTS OF A WOMAN’s LIFE).

EVERY VICTORY IS THE RESULT OF A LONG CHAIN OF CAUSAL EVENTS

The evolution and refinement of identity are not tied to places or people, yet they can be influenced by them. In written works, experiences remain clear and defined. Under the influence of inner forces, every victory—or failure—is the result of a long chain of causal events. The reformist spirit rebels against norms, values, and established powers, responding to ethical questions about how one can live with dignity in a world that is often unjust and unequal. It emphasizes that life’s circumstances are not the same for everyone, yet the opportunity to harness inner strength exists within every being. (BETWEEN KISS AND PAIN)
