About the Author
Darlene N. Böcek and her family live in Izmir, Turkey. They are all Marvel MCU, early Star Wars, and Twilight Zone fans but her favorite sci-fi character is Rocket Raccoon, because he looks like ChicaLola (see below for details!). Besides being a pastor’s wife, she is mom to four wonderful young adults, each one her most favorite.
The family lives on an olive farm overlooking the Aegean Sea. To date, they have nine sixteen twenty-four cats, three two giant dogs, two four cute Havanese puppies and one African Grey parrot. (Click below for pictures!) Most pets are named for movie characters.
