BOOKS ARE MY LIFE
Welcome to my official website. I am a writer out of passion, because I have always wanted to be one. I am not yet a Thomas Mann, but I work very hard to constantly improve myself.
Even as a child, I loved reading. I started with Jules Verne and Penelope Delta, and as I grew older, I also read more demanding literature. I have read hundreds of books, and I could probably be called a bookworm.
Every year, thousands of new books are published, so the possibilities in literature are enormous, and the paths you can follow seem endless.
But how did it all develop – writing and my dream of becoming a writer?
When I turned 16, I began writing my first verses and my first prose. This activity became a daily affair, and I began to believe that a structured story could emerge from it all.
A beautiful dream and a lovely idea, but that was it for the time being.
At first, I wanted to study medicine, but I eventually became a businessman. The dream of writing had been completely forgotten until the cursed May of 2011, when my life was turned upside down. I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, which, as it turned out, I had had since the year 2000. I lived with multiple sclerosis for eleven years without knowing it. Life showed its worst side in May: my right leg was paralyzed, and I had to use a wheelchair for some time.
Thus, writing and my dream of becoming a writer came back to the forefront. I could no longer study or work physically – I could and can only sit and write.
