Axbal Zavala
Born in Mexico to a culturally diverse lineage that includes Lebanese, Jewish, Spanish, and French roots, I have always lived between worlds—geographically, linguistically, and spiritually. My education took a global turn early on, beginning at a British high school at age 12, continuing through high school in Memphis, Tennessee, and culminating in a university degree in Southern California. Over the years, I’ve lived and worked across the USA, France, Denmark, and Mexico.
A bilingual writer with a lifelong passion for storytelling, I began writing at age seven and have since explored an expansive range of themes. My unpublished work—essays, short stories, and imaginative narratives in both English and Spanish—delves into everything from philosophy and metaphysics to historical family dramas and supernatural thrillers. Much of my inspiration draws from vivid dreams, which often feel like glimpses into parallel lives or alternate dimensions.
Now, I’ve chosen to bring two of my books to the public. The first is a suspenseful horror thriller. The second is a deeply personal narrative born from a powerful dream—one that revealed what I believe to be a past life. These works represent not only my voice as a writer, but a bridge between realities, cultures, and inner worlds.
