Recently made the cover for the next Verhalen Vertellers, published by @uitgeverijmacc.bsky.social . This is a yearly collection of Dutch speculative stories. It is the tradition that I write a flash story about the cover.

Quite busy with two projects for 2025. One is a writing guide for fantasy with the title Magie en Monsters (Magic and monsters). It is loosely based on a how to write series im Pure Fantasy and workshops I gave in recent years.
