Schrijven is mijn lust en mijn leven. Het begon op de basisschool toen ik ontdekte hoe leuk het schrijven van opstellen was en zelf ook verhalen begon te schrijven. Een daarvan ging over een mosasaurus, de tweede over het monster van Loch Ness. Op mijn achtste had ik al een eerste non-fictie boekje zelf gemaakt, compleet met tekeningen. Waarover? Dinosaurussen. Een thema wordt langzaam duidelijk.
Het zal niemand verbazen dat de reeks avonturenverhalen die ik als tiener op een typemachine uitwerkte, begon met 'Joost en Cliff op het eiland der pterodactylen.'

He remarked that he had moments when he was 'in the flow' and words poured from his pen, and then there were moments when writing was a struggle, and every word had to be wrestled onto the paper. But when he looked back on the finished work he didn't see any difference between the passages written 'in the flow' and those he had struggled with. So inspiration is not the quality that determines success, and if I have to struggle to write, it will still produce quality. I have had years of writers' block, but now I know that, I think I will always be able to write.(less)

It has a great selection of SF-stories, a lot of them full of ideas, and I'm enjoying it a lot! I'm also eagerly awaiting the new Robin Hobb-book, the last in the series about Fitz and the Fool. I plan to read some more by Alastair Reynolds. Also a lot of Dutch novels on my list, like the 'Bloedwetten'-books by Sophia Drenth and Toevluchtsoord by Anthony Holslag. (less)

Korte verhalen in overvloed en Conquistador te bestellen

Nog maar elf dagen en dan is het zover! Dan verschijnt mijn zevende boek, de SF-bundel 'Conquistador' met elf onderling samenhangende verhalen en een novelle. Mijn adrenalinespiegels zijn ondertussen alweer zo hoog dat ik er onrustig van slaap en de stijve nek waarmee ik vanochtend wakker werd zal ook niet toevallig zijn. Er moet in die laatste dagen nog heel wat gebeuren op promotiegebied, er zit Read more of this blog post »

“Good, as it ripens, becomes continually more different not only from evil but from other good.”
― C. S. Lewis, The Great Divorce

C.S. Lewis
“It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased.”
