kristina naydonova

kristina naydonova wrote her first book when she was in second grade. it was a simple rendition of “goldilocks and the three bears”.

in seventh grade, she published another book, an improved version of the novel she had always wanted to write. but that was just the beginning. during the summer and most of eighth grade, while in quarantine, kristina grew her instagram platform to over five thousand followers. she also started writing for arianna huffington’s thrive global, spoke on over a dozen podcasts and in school classrooms, and learned about digital marketing at ages twelve and thirteen.

then high school started, and she took a break for over a year to focus on classes, clubs, sports, and post-pandemic social life. but she couldn’t forget the excitement of publishing at such a young age, so she started working on her second novel, a science fiction story, and reconnected with the many readers she had connected with internationally during the pandemic.

as of 2024, her second novel, “the sentient patient”, is out in the world and available to read.

apart from writing and storytelling, kristina enjoys playing tennis and piano, traveling, and spending time with friends and family. she finds a lot of inspiration for her writing while traveling.
