Welcome to The Truth Behind the Tragedy
ZONERA AHMAD:
I started writing when I was around 10 years old. I was mainly inspired by Lemony Snicket, the author of the book series A Series of Unfortunate Events. Back then it was more of a fun project, but then I decided to write professionally and get a co-author. That was when I got Judy Hadi to join me in writing this book. I thought she was the perfect person to have alongside me in this project; she has creative ideas and she's a great writer as well.

JUDY HADI:
Zonera asked me to be her co-author when I was around 9 years old. We were both fans of Lemony Snicket, so most of the book sounds and is inspired by his writing. That's when the project started off a series, almost like animated episodes, until we decided it should be a book instead. At first, we shared our latest chapters with family and friends, then we came to the decision that our book should be shared with the world.
