Dr Annabelle RC
Dr. Annabelle R. Charbit grew up in London, UK, and has been writing since 2006, when her comedy play, Sound Advice, was performed by CP Theatre Productions in London, UK.
In 2007, she was published in The London Paper and in the British Neuroscience Association’s Summer Bulletin. In 2010 she wrote for TheFrisky.com, an online magazine who commissioned her after noticing her humorous blog, Crazy in a Crazy World.
Dr. Charbit holds a PhD in Neuroscience from University College London and has been researching migraine headache at UCSF in San Francisco, about which she has published in scientific journals.
Her inspiration behind A Life Lived Ridiculously stemmed from her research work as a neuroscientist, and she wished to write a story from the point of view of people who suffer from distorted thinking.
A Life Lived Ridiculously is Dr. Charbit's first novel.
“My mother belonged to that group of low IQ individuals who find everything alarming and believe that raising your voice is the most effective form of communication.”
