Do you like to read? I love reading! I love nothing more than to get comfortable in my hammock under my cherry tree with a nice page turner, a book of my choice. Classics are in many cases not always first choice; they are mandatory reading material in high school, and although I like some […]
Some say that writers are a different breed 😉 We often appear to be doing nothing when in fact we are busy in another world, plotting a whole new story. What to someone else is simply “staring into space” is a whole new book in the making for a writer. The crazy research that you […]
Following up on my post about Seraphin (I’m working hard to polish that manuscript and get it ready for publishing 😉 ), I thought it was time to give Lucan his own article as well. Lucan is another unique book character (if I may say so myself 🙂 ) who appears in the Aurelie series. […]
Right now, I am working on editing a manuscript. I first wrote it three years ago, and together with Thorn Heart it was the other manuscript that was stolen by a fake publisher – yes, there were two he got his hands on, but luckily I got them both back. Thorn Heart is already released, […]

Did you start a new blog or are you thinking of writing a short story and you can’t come up with an idea? When you have a website, it is recommended to publish posts several times a week, ideally, twice or even three times if you have the time. If you can only do it […]
Building a website may seem a challenging prospect, but what if I told you that you can do that in 30 seconds? Yes, that is entirely possible. Nowadays, creating a website doesn’t involve paying a techie an arm and a leg. You can do it yourself and even free. So, what do you need to […]
