Interview with Elena De Paoli, author of "How can I make it"

Elena De Paoli is a young writer who recently made his debut with his novel How can I make it, edited by Naftasia (found here ). We have already presented the book (this link), now trying to learn more through this interview and Elena.

- Tell me how did your book, what inspired you as you Constr uito the story and characters.
attend the final year of the Faculty of Modern Letters . This forces me to read every day a great deal of literary material of all kinds. This forced me to read led to the need to escape the imagination during the breaks between one examination to another. My book is born in one of those moments when I needed a simple story, moving, based on events and thoughts that many women experience daily. The speeches that entertain with my co
mpagne study were to lay the basic key points of the novel, such as difficulties in finding a permanent job, nepotism, the desire to find work that satisfies us, but while advancing our family life. I plugged in the plot clichés typical of the Italian comedy, as the stereotype of the stuffy mother, the friend who tries to impose itself, i maschilisti che si credono più furbi della massa.

- Come hai cercato la casa edit rice? Hai avuto molti problemi nel trovarla?
Quando ormai il romanzo era quasi finito e ho deciso di tentare la strada della pubblicazione, non avendo alcuna esperienza precedente, mi sono affidata a internet . Ho trovato un
a casa editrice che nel sito annunciava la ricerca di materiale per una nuova collana dedicata al genere a cui appartiene il mio libro. Ho tentato la sorte e inviato il manoscritto. Quattro mesi dopo sono stata contattata per telefono.

- La tua casa editrice you are helping to promote and you have to do everything alone?
is a small publishing house, then I pledge myself to seek opportunities to promote the book , but they find ways to circulate the text.


- The chick lit genre is your favorite? How did you decide to write a book that fell into this genre?
generally do not have a 'favorite', I chose chick lit because it was a time in my life when I was full of sarcasm and a desire to outside. As I said, as a university student, are often forced to read and reread texts that do not feel the slightest interest, which leads me to try reading more disengaged my free time, and chick lit is ideal because it allows both to enjoy it to vent those little irreverent thoughts that arise in the minds of all who are forced to do something they hate.


- What is writing for you?
is my personal way of expressing myself. They are shy and introverted nature , then struggled in the exterior of my thoughts to other people and do not look very friendly. The writing strikes my inability to communicate. I believe that all shy people find solace in writing. When we know something we do not ask, read. And when we communicate,
e are. We are no less enjoyable instead of a person who chats easily with everyone of all, we just chose another channel of expression.

- What are your favorite authors? Who inspires you?
In chick lit books I really like Sophie Kinsella , especially the book titled 'The Queen of the house', and also Helen Fielding. But I can not say I inspired any of them to write my book. Each writer deals with a different theme, with the only common point of trying to instill in their style the freshness that characterizes the genre. So far I have been told that my way of writing reminiscent of Fabio Flight ; I trust these rumors because I never read his books.


- Any other projects or for now just think the promotion of your first book?
During this time I am dedicated to promoting the book, but I started working on a couple of other texts. Not just chick lit, I groped other ways. I write in a very moody, so I do not always need to write as the ease in 'How I can do it', and the best way to recreate it and put everything else that has nothing to do with chick lit.
