"Je suis maintenant qui j'étais avant...et encore plus..." 

"I am now, what I've always been...and more..." 

A thrice immigrant: Belgian, Romanian-born South African . 

Once upon a time, long ago, up on a stage, at the Southernmost tip of Africa, I was introduced as a Romanian refugee at the De Beers writing competition.

I wanted to correct them: 

"Nee, liewer 'n kind van die wêreld !" 

"No, rather a child of the world !"

My written conquest started as a child with comic-like stories on scraps of paper and evolved to a fully-fledged novel "Down the Rabbit Hole" (2008). 

"Wonderland" is the follow-up novel - Coming Soon !

I am also now finally going down the rabbit hole of filmmaking with my first, independent, concept teaser, short film KASTEEL (2025).

Currently working on the soundtrack for the full motion picture REMEMBER (Coming Soon).

Inspired by a plethora of books and movies I've read and watched, my favourite quote (from the series Patriot) still remains: "Halfway and one step !" (Because it's what it takes to finish something difficult. Once you get to halfway and one step, it's easier just to finish than to turn back...)

I don't go with the flow...I make it !
