BOOKS
Ever since I was little, writing books has been my dream. I started many but finished few. And those few never saw the (publishing) light of day. I usually gave up after around 40 pages and I can barely look at my old work anymore. I might upload something from my teenage years one day, just to give you an idea. Or not.
Then I tried to get a poem collection published for a while. The idea was to combine my writing with pictures from as many different contributors as possible … but that didn’t really work out either. So no books yet. Sorry.
Song adaptations
Translating songs into a different language (in my case either German or English) is quite a challenge. But it is great fun too! Finding the right words and rhymes to make it sound good while still preserving the meaning and feel of the original song – in a way it’s like a puzzle. I like it.
I’ve been interested in this field of work for several years now, and I’ve managed to create a few good translations (or rather adaptations). Here’s a selection:
If you want me to write an adaptation of your own work or your favorite song, feel free to contact me!
Subtitles
Subtitling is an area that I haven’t really found the time to get into yet. I’ve written the official German subtitles for some of Chris Thompson’s (supricky06) videos on YouTube a couple of years ago. I’ve also written several German subtitles for Shane Dawson’s old clips, but he never put them online. Too bad!
Other than that, there’s nothing much I could mention in this section. I think audio description might be a really fascinating field of work. Would be fun to try that someday.
If you want me to write your subtitles, feel free to contact me.
Poems
Over the last decade or so, I’ve posted countless short poems on Facebook and/or Twitter whenever I felt like writing. Poetry is what got me most of my Facebook fans. It’s more or less become my main creative focus for a couple of years. Here is an extensive collection of my favorite poems. Reading through all of them might take a while.
You like those chains and cages
Mishandled through the ages
The spanking and the spit
You're really into it
The bitemarks, slaps and bruises
And all the tools one uses
When married for a while
But that's just not my style
It's so fucking stupid because you're still here
And I can still spend my time with you, my dear
Still daily I sob, then I stop, take a breath
And force myself not to imagine your death
Stripped naked while fully clothed
A stranger to your betrothed
You bare everything you bear
I'm there
Made worthless by all your wealth
You search for a sense of self
All courage is born from fear
I'm here
Soft little fluff ball
You're breathing so fast
Everyday's trust fall
I want this to last
Feeling you near me
I pray you won't go
You see, smell and hear me
I hope that you know
Much time has passed
And so have you
Your kids
(I do believe there's two)
Now go to school
If I at last
Turn out less blue
I'll know
No matter what I do
I'm still a fool
