Now with the virus still conducting that we should be staying at home, I have given in to a long wanted dream. As you know I’ve written a couple of stories and books. My dream is that the books will be available as audio books. I have extended my studio and invested in a professional…
One way or the other I had yesterday completely for my self. I had read in a book of Simon Haynes the option of writing in blocks of 500 words. I liked the idea and tried it yesterday. I did enjoy it very much. What is the recipe for this? Define the size of a…

Yes, finally I’m there. At the end of my newest book 1-Way Ticket to Mars. Ready with the editing. I had help from a couple of good friends. They helped me out with removing the typos I overlooked and made remarks on the content to improve the overall content. Next step: putting it all together…
