Teodora Miscov

Teodora Miscov is a Romanian writer who now lives and writes in Bali. A lifelong fascination with psychology draws her writing toward the darker side of the human psyche. She is published two poetry collections, Songs of God and Pleasure and Cheap Hotel Philosophy, both of which blur the line between the sacred and the profane with rubbing alcohol, shaky hands, and occasionally even rhyme. Trained in Neuro-Linguistic Programming and the psychology of persuasion, she leans on that knowledge in her own writing and performance. She publishes on her Substack, Dark Exotica, and her poems and stories have appeared in literary magazines and art projects across the United States, Romania, and Indonesia. She is a member of Asia Pacific Writers & Translators (APWT).

Teodora Miscov adalah seorang penulis asal Rumania yang kini tinggal dan menulis di Bali. Ketertarikannya seumur hidup terhadap psikologi membawa tulisannya ke sisi gelap jiwa manusia. Ia telah menerbitkan dua kumpulan puisi, Songs of God and Pleasure dan Cheap Hotel Philosophy, yang keduanya mengaburkan batas antara yang sakral dan yang profan dengan alkohol gosok, tangan yang gemetar, dan sesekali bahkan rima. Terlatih dalam Neuro-Linguistic Programming dan psikologi persuasi, ia mengandalkan pengetahuan tersebut dalam tulisan dan pertunjukannya. Ia menerbitkan karyanya di Substack miliknya, Dark Exotica, dan puisi serta cerita-ceritanya telah dimuat di berbagai majalah sastra dan proyek seni di Amerika Serikat, Rumania, dan Indonesia. Ia adalah anggota Asia Pacific Writers & Translators (APWT).
