Written by JJ Barnes
I interviewed author Aleksandra Tryniecka about her life, what inspires her to write, and the creation of the characters in her new Christmas book, Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story.
Tell me a bit about who you are.
My name is Aleksandra Tryniecka and I am an Assistant Professor at Maria Curie-Skłodowska University and the author of “Bunky and the Walms: The Christmas Story”. I am very passionate about reading, writing and drawing and I immensely enjoy discussing literature with my students! In my free time, I writes poetry and stories in order to accommodate my life with the right words and interesting literary worlds.
I especially enjoy the nineteenth-century British literature and everything written by Anthony Trollope and Wilkie Collins. One of my favourite literary characters is the Cheshire Cat. Without a doubt, Bunky is also my favourite literary character! I cannot live without gardening and I love baking chocolate cakes!
When did you first WANT to write a book?
The first time I wanted to write a book was when I was four years old. My Mum taught me how to read and write when I was four and we had a great time reading and writing letters together! I immediately began writing in a big white notebook and the first novel that came to life was “The Fate of Hedgehog” – I illustrated the book as well! It was my very special first literary creation and the novel with a happy ending!
When did you take a step to start writing?
I took a serious step towards writing in 2006 when, as a teenager, I wrote an article about Lebanon for a scientific journal “Archeologia Żywa” (“Archeology Alive”) and became the youngest published author in the journal. I was fascinated by archeology! Before that, I was writing a lot while studying at school. I loved poetry and would often participate in poetry competitions.
Additionally, I have been writing a diary since I was four – it would be difficult for me to make sense of reality and my life progressing in a linear pattern if not for this beloved diary! Shaping everything into words helped me a lot and it does help me still! I realize that I can fully make sense of my life only when I turn every experience into written words.
How long did it take you to complete your first book from the first idea to release?
My first book, apart from “The Fate of Hedgehog”, was an adventure! I had been writing it from 2015 until the end of 2018 and there is the next part coming! Yet, I cannot reveal the title, as it is yet unpublished! “Bunky and the Walms: The Christmas Story” is my published debut novel.
The idea was born in 2019 when, together with Chris, we travelled for a conference to London. During our stay in London, we had a couple of adventures which allowed us to almost tangibly encounter the future literary world from “Bunky and the Walms”. “Bunky and the Walms” was completed in 2020. Writing the book was like diving into the pleasant, peaceful world from the recent past.
What made you want to write Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story?
Firstly, I was greatly inspired by our adventures in London! One day, Chris and I were taking a walk through Brent when, suddenly, we encountered the Walm Lane. This is how the Walms’ world came to life! We also have a precious mascot – the Blue Hippo, who was the prototype of our Bunky. Then, while writing the novel in 2020, I hoped to bring back the happy memories from the recent past and share them with the Readers.
I also hoped to introduce a literary protagonist (Bunky) who would be quite similar to the Readers: Bunky is not perfect, yet he strives to be noble, loyal, and courageous! I thought that it would be interesting to offer my Readers a protagonist who is the true hero, but the hero who, essentially, fights his “biggest”, inner battles in everyday life! Moreover, I love Christmas and hoped to share with my Readers this special Christmas spirit which is so dear to me.
What were your biggest challenges with writing Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story?
I wish I had more free time to write… but this is the problem faced by every person living in our modern reality!
Who or what inspired you when creating your Protagonist?
The prototype of my main Protagonist is my precious mascot – the Blue Hippo. Chris and I found the Blue Hippo in London and we immediately fell in love with him! His face expression was charming – he was looking at us with this sort of bitter smile, as if he was going to say: “I told you so!”. His face expression was not idealized but, instead, quite sincere and natural. It spoke volumes about the possible joy and bitterness of life, as this is what makes life truly beautiful – this intricate chain of falls and victories which shape us into the heroes of our own stories! This is how Bunky Hippo was born.
Then, in August 2021, I took some materials, threads and a needle and made the mascot of Bunky and his favourite red sweater! You can meet Bunky on my website: http://www.aleksandratryniecka.com
Who or what inspired you when creating your Antagonist?
This question really struck me because it is only now that I realize that there is no Antagonist in my novel! I feel that the idea of the Antagonist in “Bunky and the Walms” would be more internal – the main character, Bunky, undergoes inner struggles in his everyday life and I feel that this inner battle would suggest this antagonistic element. In general, Bunky is a very noble person and his struggles bring him quite close to the Readers and their individual battles.
What is the inciting incident of Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story?
Bunky, his cousin Rodney and their friend – the little wolf Plum will go on a sleigh ride together and, during their trip, they will encounter a Christmas messenger – Rudolph, who will inform Bunky that “the world needs him”. This will be too much even for someone as heroic as Bunky yet, the Readers will find out what will be Bunky’s response!
What is the main conflict of Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story?
The main conflict in my book is between the protagonist’s hopes that Christmas wishes should be gratified and his realization that sometimes wishes are not truly gratified, yet this may pave the way for something even better to enter our lives. Every gift, as Bunky will find out, should be appreciated, as it always comes from the heart.
Another layer of conflict in my novel concerns the literary world – Bunky is writing his own novel and he hopes to encounter the characters from his narrative – yet, what are the boundaries between Bunky’s world and the literary world which he invented and are there any boundaries or obstacles if one truly believes in dreams? The Readers will find out!
Did you plot Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story in advance, or fly by the seat of your pants and write freely?
I had the main idea and the framework of the novel in my mind. My protagonist – Bunky, his family, and his friends were there in my mind from the start. The plot was also there yet, there are some moments when Bunky would show me the right way and I would follow him. I love following my characters, as they always lead me towards a great narrative!
Did you get support with editing, and how much editing did Bunky And The Walms: The Christmas Story need?
“Bunky and the Walms: The Christmas Story” was published by Wipf and Stock Publishing House/Resource Publications. I had the honour of working with an amazing Team! I am so grateful for their constant support, help and patience. I am also very grateful for the editing advice. Without this wonderful Team, “Bunky and the Walms” would never be here and Bunky would not be able to celebrate Christmas together with the Readers! I am so thankful that I have received a lot of support and encouragement.
What is the first piece of writing advice you would give to anyone inspired to write a story?
This will sound insane, but please do the following: surround yourself with your literary world, make friends with your characters, and make sure that you drink tea while writing! (It works!)
Can you give me a hint about any further books you’re planning to write?
Bunky is definitely awaiting his further adventures – I am very curious where he will lead us! We both have a plan concerning his new adventures! He is such a precious character to me and I would never like to part with him in any sense – therefore, I cannot imagine the future without following Bunky on his literary adventures!
I am also working on the book about the Victorian female characters – it is an academic project also very close to my heart.
And, finally, are your proud of your accomplishment? Was it worth the effort?
I would like to say that I am definitely very proud of my literary character, Bunky, and so proud of all the characters in my novel! I am proud of this literary world – I do hope that I will make them proud too!

In our experience, this impact can turn out to
be everlasting, preventing males from having kids (15).
We have had cases of Anadrol causing gynecomastia
through the direct stimulation of estrogen receptors in the mammary gland.
Gynecomastia (gyno) is when extra breast tissue starts to kind in a male.
Our patients don’t expertise noticeable bloating or fluid retention on Anadrol if their food plan is clean and they are already
lean. Due to Anadrol causing noticeable amounts of extracellular fluid retention, it’s not probably the most optimal steroid for vascularity.
Athletes who use steroids to realize an unfair benefit over their opponents aren’t solely breaking the
rules of their sport but in addition compromising the spirit of truthful play.
This can have a detrimental influence on the popularity and credibility of the game, in addition to the health
and security of the athletes involved. From a authorized standpoint,
using steroids without a prescription is illegal in many international locations.
This legal framework is in place to prevent the abuse and misuse of
steroids, which might have severe well being consequences.
While it might not pack a huge punch like Superdrol or shred you
down like Anavar, it simply seems to make every little thing work that significantly better.
Since it frees up extra testosterone, as a result of less binding with
SHBG, it works nice with testosterone, and even better the more compounds you stack.
If a Turinabol-only cycle is being carried out, only
one SERM could additionally be wanted post-cycle. However, if
Turinabol is stacked with other suppressive
anabolics, two SERMs may be taken synchronously. Our sufferers will sometimes take 30 mg of Nolvadex per day or one hundred mg of Clomid
per day, with a PCT lasting approximately 30 days. Liver stress enzyme markers such as AST (aspartate aminotransferase) and ALT (alanine aminotransferase) will rise
on Turinabol as a result of it being a C-17 alpha-alkylated steroid and thus passing by way of the liver.
It is properly worth stating that girls don’t have to fret about masculine
traits growing when using HGH, as is the case with anabolic steroids.
HGH is not an anabolic/androgenic steroid
and cannot cause masculine traits to develop. Simply
like in men, long-term and/or high-dose use does put ladies at
threat of bone, tissue, and organ enlargement.
When stacking HGH with any steroids that aromatize, men ought
to take additional care to minimize back the risk of
gynecomastia developing with the extra pronounced development of breast tissue being attributable to HGH.
A dose of 4iu daily of HGH is normal when stacking it with steroids, although some males may select 6iu.
The minimal time frame for HGH use is sixteen weeks, but 24 weeks
is really helpful for finest outcomes. The stacked steroids will normally be added to the second half of your cycle.
Depending on your particular objectives, these will typically be the most well-liked steroids, like testosterone and Trenbolone for
bulking cycles and Anavar or Winstrol if you’re on a slicing cycle.
For probably the most hardcore fat loss, Clenbuterol (which is not a steroid) is usually stacked with HGH.
Deca Durabolin and Anadrol are different steroids that males will stack with HGH.
Once More, you can’t consider that without planning the price of this high-priced product as a end result
of each week you use HGH can cost a considerable quantity.
It’s not unusual for females to need to use HGH purely for
aesthetic reasons due to the anti-aging properties of HGH.
Fats loss can additionally be extra easily achievable at
this dose, with well-controlled unwanted aspect effects for most girls.
50mg is a dose many customers won’t ever need to exceed, but when you’re tolerating
it nicely, doubling the dose to 100mg will enhance power and measurement features to an incredible level.
Anavar utilization has been shown to reduce back sex hormone
binding globulin (SHBG). Discount in SHBG discount increases the amount of free
testosterone (active) in the physique. Nevertheless, the unwanted effects of Winstrol should prompt somebody to reconsider the potential hepatic and cardiac injury
in the pursuit of reasonable muscle and fats achieve.
As A End Result Of of this, the acute effects of AAS within the
mind are considerably different from those of other medication of abuse.
Nandrolone just isn’t a generally counterfeited steroid,
but it does occur. Of course you may also find you’re shopping for from a direct scammer, somebody
that takes your money and supplies no product. Nonetheless,
there are plenty of high quality suppliers and you’ll find it’s additionally
one of the most reasonably priced steroids on the market.
Healthy and don’t have any underlying medical conditions,
then taking steroids will not be a nasty thought. Nonetheless, when you have any doubts in any
way, it’s all the time best to err on the side of warning and avoid them altogether.
Furthermore, steroids have anti-inflammatory properties and might suppress the exercise
of immune cells concerned in the inflammatory response. By decreasing
inflammation, steroids can assist within the recovery course of,
mitigating the consequences of muscle damage and hastening total healing time.
Oral steroids are ingested within the form
of tablets or capsules and are absorbed into the bloodstream through
the digestive system. These steroids bear a course of often recognized as “first-pass metabolism” within the liver before coming into the systemic circulation. Oral steroids are popular among athletes because
of their convenience and non-invasive administration. Research also signifies that some users
would possibly flip to other medicine to alleviate a few of
the unfavorable results of AAS.
Activating this G protein-coupled receptor triggers a cascade of events that stimulates the synthesis and release of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
LH and FSH, in turn, bind to their cognate receptors on the Leydig cells and
Sertoli cells of the testis, respectively. LH stimulates testosterone manufacturing and, at the side of FSH,
regulates spermatogenesis. Testosterone, and its estrogenic
metabolite estradiol, exert negative suggestions on the hypothalamus and pituitary to suppress
their very own synthesis (173, 174). Estradiol specifically is awfully
potent at suppressing gonadotropin secretion as, on a molar foundation, it is estimated to be
200-fold more potent than testosterone in doing so (175).
Consequently, exogenously administered AAS may also exert unfavorable suggestions, thereby
suppressing testicular testosterone manufacturing and spermatogenesis.

You don’t wish to condition your body to need mega doses of Anadrol to be able
to make further features, which could be the case if someone chooses
to blast and cruise Anadrol. There was a research that measured whether
grapefruit considerably elevated the absorption and bioavailability of the sex steroids estradiol and progesterone.
Both are fast-acting; however, Anadrol 50 is an oral, and trenbolone is an injectable.
If different drugs are mixed with Anadrol, you should calculate when they may also go away the body.
In this state of affairs, start the PCT when the final steroid has left your system, i.e., The effect of stress on a Dianabol cycle one with the longest half-life.
Like Dianabol, Anadrol may be cycled alone with glorious outcomes,
especially if the person is a novice to oxymetholone.
Expect very fast results with this stack thanks to Anadrol, the fast-acting oral steroid.
Count On features anyplace from 15lbs as a lot as 35lbs at the excessive finish
if you’re not a tough gainer or don’t have a huge number of cycles under your belt yet.
Expect amazing pumps due to the big nitrogen retention increase
with Deca. If this is considered one of your first cycles,
you probably can easily see gains in the 25lb vary.
Those with more experience may find features a little extra average, but they’ll nonetheless be ultra
spectacular even within the 10-15lbs vary.
If you’re like me, you might really feel horrible on high-dose Testosterone
(1000mg weekly, for example).
Dianabol raises blood strain like all anabolic steroids, albeit to a more notable degree, as a result
of its huge effect on water retention (making
blood volume more and more viscous). Objectively, there was a lack of high frequencies
and a lower mean frequency during speech, in addition to elevated voice creakiness and instability
as assessed by a speech pathologist. Laryngoscopic findings showed no variations
between groups with regard to oedema of the vocal cords and
laryngitis.
So, if you’re genetically prone to shedding your hair, Dianabol may cause some thinning in susceptible individuals.
Gynecomastia occurs when a man’s hormones become imbalanced and estrogen ranges (the feminine intercourse
hormone) rise excessively. This is comparatively widespread in AAS (anabolic-androgenic steroids) use, notably Dianabol, because
of its estrogenic nature. In common, 37% of steroid customers will
expertise some form of gynecomastia (11).
There’s additionally the chance of buying an under-dosed product
or an entire fake steroid. If you don’t analysis your provider in query, there is additionally a danger of being instantly scammed out of your cash.
Trenbolone is one other harsh compound that people usually react
negatively to, despite its superb outcomes. The post-cycle crash on trenbolone is also
severe, leaving customers feeling mentally low in addition to having their testosterone shut down. Oral trenbolone (methyltrienolone) is
much more poisonous than commonplace injectable trenbolone, with our
LFTs indicating liver toxicity, even in conservative dosages.
Anadrol, however, is very well-known for its very harsh hepatotoxicity,
which might be defined in greater detail shortly. Anadrol’s chemical modifications and chemical structure (including its C17
Alpha Alkylation) makes it very resistant to hepatic breakdown (liver metabolism).
As is the case with all steroids, both injectable or oral
anabolic steroids.
When planning a steroid cycle, one of the essential decisions is whether to use oral
or injectable compounds. Analysis on highschool athletes reveals they’re much less likely to misuse anabolic steroids if their friends and family disapprove.
Anabolic steroids are Schedule III substances under the Controlled Substances Act.
We have found Anavar to be one of the best steroids in regard to poisonous
side effects. Analysis has also proven it to possess security in long-term medical settings (9).
We have had patients report significant energy results on Anavar, even when consuming low calories.
This is also why powerlifters usually administer Anavar prior to a competition for
max power without significant weight achieve.
But the additional fluid won’t be your friend if you’d like a pleasant muscle definition and vascularity.
But regardless of all its potency and real side impact dangers,
Anadrol CAN be tolerated well by many individuals, and unwanted effects
could be minimized with sensible use. One research
showed that whereas patients frequently experienced side effects,
they had been primarily gentle and always reversible.
