Music
Composing and playing
Music is the second language of the writing. I compose and play — pieces that often find their way into the mood of a chapter, and into the scoring of the immersive audiobook.
Beyond the page
Other practices
The novels are one part of it. There is also music, poetry and the hours in the gym that keep the writing steady.
Poetry
Short poems
Between the novels there are short poems: quick, compressed pieces written in the margins of long days.
Training
Fitness as discipline
Four to seven days a week — most often after work, with one or two early mornings thrown in. It keeps the writing hours honest: the same discipline, applied to a different kind of endurance.
