Naast schrijven houd ik van lezen (surprise :p), honden, paarden, mijn vrienden, mijn familie, Disney en metal muziek. Sommige mensen vinden Disney en metal een vreemde combinatie, maar ik ben soms ook een beetje vreemd. Oh, en voor wie het nog niet wist, ik ben een trotse autist, waar ik misschien ooit nog eens een boek over schrijf. -
