Pantelis asked Laura Thalassa:

Hi Laura , I just have a quick question. How come your Last name is the Greek word for sea?

Laura Thalassa I moonlight as a sea goddess! Okay, I kid—I wish I were a sea goddess; my inner five year old would totally approve of the career choice. But in actuality, Thalassa is a pen name, and I chose it because I have a deep love for ancient Greek culture—I almost became an archaeologist instead of a writer—and taking it on as my last name was a nod to one of my other loves. :)
