Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I’m a dutch writer that lived in Scotland for 20 years, these days I’m therefore more comfortable writing in English. I moved to the south of France six years ago and took up writing. I have since published three books and was published in three anthologies.
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
I just published Conversations with Tom. My big ginger cat was my inspiration. He now even has his own Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/TomstertheCat/
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
I do like to write outside on my balcony. The cat is distracted by the birds and I can get more done. A light breeze will keep me focused
What authors, or books have influenced you?
I do like P.G Wodehouse and find his humour and wit something to inspire too.
What are you working on now?
I’m working on the follow up on Conversations with Tom and a satire set in Edinburgh.
What is your best method or website when it comes to promoting your books?
If I’ve found it I will tell you. The best thing is to network and interact with other writers. They are mostly friendly and willing to share tips.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Get your work edited and proof read. It is annoying to see a badly formatted book with mistakes.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
work hard if you want to achieve anything.
What are you reading now?
I always have an indie author on my kindle. I try to read and review a few books a month.
What’s next for you as a writer?
Hopefully publish the two works I’m working on now
What is your favorite book of all time?
I was a goldsmith in a previous life and I’ve loved the autobiography of Bienvenuto Celini a Renaissance goldsmith and artist.
