Júlia Goldman (born 25 September 25 1974, Orosháza) is a Hungarian mathematician, teacher, programmer and author. She writes under the pseudonym J. Goldenlane. Goldenlane belongs among the most popular fantasy authors in Hungary due to her trademark humour that permeates her stories. She had a strong influence on the Hungarian sci-fi and fantasy generation which started off in the 2010s. Her popularity persists, even despite a ten years long hiatus in her writing career.
Contents
Her writings are being published by one of the leading fantasy publishing houses of Hungary, Delta Vision since 2015. Her novels were formerly published by Beholder.
Career
She was born in Orosháza and graduated at József Attila Tudományegyetem (currently called University of Szeged). Even though she is a skilled and trained programmer, she never held a job as one. She resides in Szeged. She sought out many publishing houses before Beholder finally published Isteni balhé. In the following years she published a series of novels and short stories. Eventually, apart from a cookbok she co-authored with Diána Balogh, Goldenlane totally disappeared from the literary scene from the year 2005 to spend time with her three children.
She reappeared in 2015 with her post-apocalyptic novel Napnak fénye, which was published by Delta Vision. The publishing house began to publish her older works as well as any new ones she writes.
