An award-winning writer of numerous published books, optioned scripts, adaptations and teacher of writing as well as being a forensic nurse, helping others with poison, medical and forensic questions for their stories. 

As a talented individual, I have always been immersed in the arts. Whether it is drawing or writing my passion for both was unwavering. Graduating from the School of Visual Arts with a degree in Media Arts and a minor in Journalism I was off and running. With the knowledge I garnered from the College I managed to create my own Public Relations business.

When it comes to my writing I have been published in many online and print magazines. Since I come from a Greek background my first writing gig was with a major Greek publication entitled National Herald. The experience with this newspaper helped me branch out to others similar to it, like the Hellenic Times. Eventually, I decided to expand my skills to the mainstream market. Hence, I came in contact with online publications like http://www.thelifestylerepublic.com/ , ,www.skopemagazine.com and www.mobcandymag.com . I was also the editor of MCM for 7 years.

The magazine Mob Candy is an entertainment publication whose backbone is peppered with gangster stories. Since I was and still am a “mob buff” I fit in perfect with this publication. In addition to all the press work, I have also penned my own novel “Destinies” which is currently available on Amazon. Besides that, I also just completed a historical overview of the Greek mafia title "Mafia Ties - The Greek Syndicates" worldwide which is also on Amazon along with my third book which I worked with ex-mobster John Alite called Prison Rules . During COVID I penned my 4th book "Destinies Vol II - No Honor Among Thieves" In addition, I was featured as a mob expert on the cable channel REELZ for the program “Mafia Killers w/ Colin McLaren”.

Even though I have made these strides with my God-given talent I am always in search of building more bridges. In the entertainment industry there are no limits of what one can accomplish. My biggest goal presently is to see my first book made into a film with Shake the Tree Productions.

Theodora Oniceanu is an author who started her serious journey as a writer and an artist in 2013 when she published for the first time, in her artist portfolio, some of her words and artistic work. Her direction was from the very beginning of her publishing journey an experimental one, touched by poetic views and abstract thinking. Her school formation is in great part formed of Western languages studies and aspects of Western Europe culture but not only.

In April 2018 she published as an e-book her first volume of poetry titled “Time Files”. Other volumes of diverse poetry followed along with artwork creation. So appeared the hybrid “Prism Tears” (2018-06-05) and the visual brochures added works for “Time Files” and “In T[I’m]” (2018-06-25), with a little imagery ad for “The Hour of the Blue Man” (2018-06-06) and the illustrations created for the covers of each of her books published until 2020 when she decided to consciously use other people’s art in her book covers creation and projects. So emerged “Natural” (2020-12-09) and “Christmas Afflatus” (2021-01-12) published with the use of other photographers, “Under a Starry Sky” (2020-12-20) with a thematic artistically adapted to surreal fantasy visuals collage composition. In 2020 “Soul Crush” (2021-09-13) brings her back to her natural habit of making it all herself from scratch. Covers and poetry wish to be more simple with a little didactic material inserted.

On May 29, 2020, she published her first book in the trilogy “Phantomaniacs”, a dark fantasy novel dedicated to youth with action developed in Europe. Previously to this fantasy book, she published a fantasy story titled “Moons of Amaterasu” (2020-03-29) inspired by Japanese culture and mythology. Other writing pieces created also to promote aspects of the universal culture she embraced and fell in love with, along with poetry volumes were published. In 2020-2021 she returned, though, to an old high-school love affair: theatre and playwrighting. On May 13, 2021, “Perceptions: Open Skies Collections” is published, an anthology of poetry to which she gladly contributed. On October 21, 2021, her first play written in English is published, “Trolleo and Henriette” followed by its sequel “Interview with the Blue Door”. The month of December, of the same year brings the publication of another anthology in which she participated, “Quintessence: Coming of Age” (2021-12-25). She’s also published on Spillwords.com.

“Bus Station Bookmarks” is her free verse collection published at the end of 2022 for the start of the year 2023. Along came her free-verse poetry written in Romanian, “Fluturi Întemnițați”, also included in her BSB, reading in public spaces project and study. The other works programmed to be launched and published for this project are two Romanian pieces, “Gogoșari de Marțipan”, a collection of verses, and “Datori a fi Moddeli” a humorous three acts play and English work like “Sweet Talk” and “A Change of Heart”, another three acts play, with three versions of “Noir” coming up next, one in English, a second one in French and another one in Romanian, each slightly different.
