Als schrijver en dichter werk ik voor mijn eigen plezier én werk ik op maat: een vergadering, evenement of andere belangrijke levensgebeurtenis voorzie ik graag van een luchtig of serieuze observatie waarin ik mijn blik op uw werkelijkheid laat horen en zien. Hiernaast schrijf ik ook gedichten op maat over allerlei mogelijke onderwerpen. Snel, gevat, integer en creatief met een goed gevoel voor nuance en sfeer.Ik dicht terwijl u wordt geboren, vergadert, trouwt of reltof – aan ’t eind van uw latijn – ter aarde wordt besteld
