Fairy Tales
Since forever I’ve been fascinated by fairy tales and given that I want to start on some small creative writing project, I have thought of this interesting idea. I want to start analysing all the fairy tales that I love, to break them down to their essential events and then put them together again but from different perspectives (for example: Aladdin from the perspective of the genie instead of that of Aladdin himself). I will also give my own twist to the fairy tales, but it’s more meant as a fun writing exercise. Once I’ve started this project, I’ll put some of them up on the site for you to read (I don’t know which language they’ll be in yet though).
Meet the Parents
This is a small fragment of a story I’ve written a couple of years ago. It’s about a woman named Winnie. She’s at a point in her life where she’s fed up with it all and she’s basically bored. But she’s got three little kids and a husband that loves her very much, so she can’t just get up and leave. This little scene describes a family meal they have at her husband’s parents. It’s written from the perspective of Winnie and unfortunately it’s in Dutch! Enjoy.

Spirit
From now on I’ll try to post some of my writings here. I’ll start with this little piece that I wrote a long time ago. I wanted to write a story about the innocence of a child, but it came out very differently. It’s from my heart and I still believe in every word of it. I hope you enjoy it.
