This is a collection of raw, fleeting, and heartfelt moments - tiny windows into countless emotions. Each piece stands alone, yet together they weave a tapestry of thoughts, memories, and what-ifs. Some are gentle, some sting, and some stay with you longer than you expect. There are no perfect plots here - only fragments of feeling, shaped into words for those who love to imagine between the lines.

A collection of microfictions I posted on twitter and other stuff I wrote that are very short. Many of them are leftovers fragments from my WIP, the Anabiography, a book about death and rebirth and coming to terms with being a trans girl.

A collection of one-shots, fragments, and short scenes, ranging from horror to heartbreak, from quiet deaths to violent beginnings. None of them are connected, yet none of them truly stand apart. Sometimes, when my mind wanders and sensations overwhelm me, I find myself writing something unrelated to any story I'm working on at the time. They're all based on emotions sitting heavy on my chest. They're not depressing or bad in any way, just often more detailed and deep than my usual storytelling works.

A prison doctor gives a rapist what he deserves. Micro-fiction written at the University of Cambridge in December of 2013.

Can you tell a story in less than 250 characters? This is a collection of some of my micro-fiction from my Talehunt days. The challenge is to tell a story in about the same amount of letters it has taken to write this summary. Stories shoot across all genres: from horror to hard- boiled crime; comedy to adventure. Some display an introspection on life and the world, often through a skewed lens, but none are boring... they're not long enough to be!

In this book I write short stories. Some are in English and some are in Dutch. Most of the stories will be one chapter. I hope you like it:) Please note that English is not my first language so I apologize for any mistakes. In dit boek schrijf ik allemaal korte verhalen. Sommige zijn Engels en sommige zijn Nederlands. De meeste verhalen zullen één hoofdstuk zijn. Ik hoop dat je het leuk vind:)
