About The Author

Natalia Marconi grew up on Long Island, where stories seemed to find her before she could find the right words for them. Before high school homework and dance rehearsals filled her evenings, she was already scribbling ideas on the backs of old notebooks, tiny worlds that would one day become full stories.

Her debut novel, The Rhythm of the Dark, emerged from those late-night writing sessions as a haunting exploration of love, loss, and the quiet, unrelenting shape of grief. She writes from the edges of emotion, where silence says more than dialogue ever could.

A teen author with an old soul, Natalia is drawn to dystopian and psychological landscapes, the kind that test resilience and reveal what lingers after the world falls apart. Her prose feels like walking through fog, soft, cold, and full of questions you’re not sure you want answered.

Friends say she thinks in metaphors; her family says she lives half in another world. Both might be right.

Her goal isn’t fame or fanfare; it’s connection. She hopes readers find pieces of themselves in the quiet ache of her pages and realize that broken things can still hold light.
