Helge is German, married to a Spanish woman and living in Madrid. He has a full time job at a big IT company, which is quite demanding, and is trying to find time to write whenever he can.
His interest in writing sparked very early, when he was still in primary school. He would get little comic strips of four vignettes and had to write stories that matched the images. He was amazed by the possibilities and enjoyed the task immensely.
In his teens he had some ideas floating around in his head and he did a lot of world building for a story that he’s never gotten around to bring to paper. He still remembers fondly how he’d type on an old IBM notebook (which was more like a brick) after dark, when he was supposed to be sleeping already.
After finishing his A levels, writing didn’t play a big role in his life until recently. He was busy studying computer science, and then moving to Spain, and all that entails, but he’s always had a notion of “one day I’ll write a book”.
Eventually he realized that “one day” will never come unless you sit down and put some work into it. This book is the result of his effort.
