Autorenporträt
Hi! I am a 29-year-old writer living in Berlin, Germany. "It's too embarrassing" is my first foray into flash fiction, as well as my first dive into multilingual fiction. As in my other 2 books, the story is based on real-life experience, infused with fancy. I did indeed spent a year living in Japan during uni. Some of my other passions include playing the violin, competing in mahjong tournaments and esports; and they can find their ways into my stories from time to time. Reading has always been a huge part of my life. Ultimately, the incredible characters and emotions in Joel Dicker's books inspired me to pick up the (figurative) pen myself. Robert Galbraith's "The inkblack heart" made me lose myself in my own crime story shortly thereafter. Check out my music themed queer contemporary fiction novel "Strings Attached" or my murder mystery "Christmas Feast" too.
