By the way, I wrote a book! :D

I can't believe it's happening! My first novel is out now!

--> english version under the cut!

Der alte Kommisar und das Meer? Nichts da! Frederik Taylor ist wohl der jüngste Inspector, den Scotland Yard jemals hervorgebracht hat. Gemeinsam mit seinem treuen Beagle Alfie reist er auf die abgelegene Insel Cetecea Island um den Fall der vermissten Journalistin Josephine White zu untersuchen. Was zumächst anmutet, wie ein typischer Vermisstenfall, soll sich schon bald als weitaus undurchsichtiger herausstellen. Undurchsichtiger sogar als der dichte Nebel, der die kleine Insel regelmäßig zu verschlingen scheint.

Inmitten von Familienzwisten, Schweigegeldern und fantastisch wirkenden Seemannsgarn muss Taylor feststellen, dass der Begriff Wahrheit auf dieser Insel dehnbar ist und Unmöglichkeit eine Frage der Perspektive.

Begleite Inspector Frederik Taylor auf den ersten seiner sonderbaren Fälle und entdecke das Geheimnis der Insel der schwebenden Wale.

Ab jetzt im epubli-shop bestellen oder ab dem 16.02.2023 online erhältlich im Buchhandel deines Vertrauens.

The old inspector and the sea? Absolutely not! Frederik Taylor may be the youngest inspector Scotland Yard has ever seen. Followed by his his loyal Beagle Alfie he visits the remote island Cetecea Island to investigate the case of the missing journalist Josephine White. What seems to be just another missing person case soon turns out to be much more obscure. Even more obscure than the mysterious fog that seems to want to swallow the island whole.

In the midst of family disputes, hush money and fantastical sailors yarn Taylor has to learn that the concept of truth is flexible on this island and impossibility just a question of perspective.

Join Inspector Taylor on his first of many curious cases to come and discover the secret of the island of floating whales.

Out now on epubli-shop or from april 17th on every major online bookshop.

Guess who's back? :D

Having left university I won't be posting much stuff about my studies anymore, since it would show too much about the place I am now working for. But I am still very much into learning languages, so I will be posting about this instead.

Seriously, I started university when I was 20, moved and changed my major after three semesters and never finished that one either. After seven semesters and having collected all credit points I needed I failed to register my bachelors thesis 3(!) times and eventually dropped out completely for financial reasons. Now I am 26 and will start to get trained as an industrial clerk next august. When I finish I'll be around 30 years old....

I feel like I am a complete failure having achieved nothing at all but you can't imagine how many people fawn over my CV because appearently I am an interesting person (?) that did so many interesting things already (??) and future employers like that (???)

its kinda scary how your whole life depends on how well you do as a teenager

People who are (or were) university students: Tag in which country your uni is and if you do anything after the lesson is over, like applaud etc. Because I go to uni in Austria and when the lesson is over we knock on the tables and my new Norwegian teacher always seems completely bewildered. Is that not a thing in other countries? Help me with my totally scientific research, thanks!
