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.
"Fuck me any way you want!"
A bittersweet predicament
My trouble's truly decadent
It wasn't your intend to taunt
But how do I want to fuck?
It's best when you enjoy it most
And not because I like to boast
It's just that one-man shows quite suck
Glücklich.
Dass ich nicht lache.
Du weißt nicht, was ich mache.
Fick dich.
Lachhaft.
Du wirst nie sehen:
Ich hab grad genug Kraft
Um zu stehen.
Could you hate me?
It's not hard
I do it quite a lot
Could you leave me?
Break my heart?
The only one I've got
Could you kill me?
Play your part?
And let me be forgot
Unhook my bra and touch my spine
My nipples can't await your kiss
Please play these body parts of mine
A symphony of rhythmic bliss
I should have said "I love you too"
But I was scared of me and you
Scared quiet by your differentness
I should have stayed and worried less
