My Bio

I live in Germany and have been working as a professional information designer for more than five years. My last job was as an application administrator in the radiology departement of a hospital. Right now I work as a very unprofessional mum. My daugther survived her first year, so I guess I do not suck completely at that job.


I founded a publishing house in 2018, with which I published exactly 1 book and made 0 profits. There were postcards, too. Or rather still are, because I didn't sell most of them. I consider programming and publishing a computer game next, but I am not sure if that idea will ever make it to anywhere outside my head.


I write in two languages: German (my mother tongue) and English (the language of my secrets and my soul).


My poems are filled with rich metaphors and multiple meanings, my short stories are often dreamlike and philosophical. I also explored moving poems and performance poems, incorporating my body into the reading.


Besides that I'm still working on my first book, Hunting Deer, even though I have no idea what the heck it is about anymore. This is what used to be my first chapter: Hunting Deer


I received a DD and a DLD on "Old Hands" and a DLD on my poem “Earth”.


If you're interested in doing some kind of fun collaboration art with me, let me know!


Yours truly,

Story

Hello old place, how have you been while I was gone? I see you look very different, bought yourself some new clothes I guess. Changed your persona, changed your face. But what about your soul? Is it still that old well deep enough to awe and inspire me? Can't blame you for changing, I guess, because so did I. And yet I didn't. Let's see if our new old selves can still be friends. If anyone around here remembers me, feel free to say hello and link me to your newest deviation (or the one you are the most proud of).

Being more stubborn and persistant than a virus, introverted enough to entertain yourself and a little scared of too close social interaction might come in handy these days. Go ahead and update your skills sheet with the odd pebbles you always kept hidden.

Feeling old

1 min read
I haven't been here for what feels like a century and everything looks so different I hardly recognize it. It's not that the new design isn't beautiful to my eyes, but I get lost and can't sort things the way I want to, so I still keep switching back to the old one. Sometimes I wish the internet was more like a book that doesn't change after you printed it. Besides that I'm having trouble gathering up my bones for yet another battle when they're still broken from the last. Sometimes I wish I were tougher, less sensitive - even though I wholeheartedly believe that what this world needs is not new steel walls, fighters or weapons, but more open arms, hearts and eyes. I heard there is a thing called the ten percent rule. You need ten percent of people supporting a new paradigm in order to change the status quo. I know there's others like me out there, but it seems we aren't ten percent yet. I wonder if it's better I can't seee the current statistics, they might be too depressing.
