Welcome to my website!
I have been a corporate banking and investment management lawyer with global banks for 25 years, currently based in Abu Dhabi.
I have a passion for writing and publishing and have written, edited, founded and published a variety of publications – some published by leading publishers, some crowdfunded and self published.
I aim to entertain, sometimes thrill and in any case interest an audience of likeminded people in finance, law and business around the world with unusual fiction publications. I believe that when I have fun and/or thrill writing them and touch on some interesting topics, the same should apply to a large group of these likeminded people out there.
My greatest reward so far has been to have seen this be confirmed by many spontaneous reviews and feedback from a diverse group of international readers.
My fiction includes a legal business thriller debut – WHITE INK – that became one of the ‘most remarkable thriller debuts’ in the Netherlands in 2013 (WITTE INKT), published as only work of fiction of the oldest publishing house of the Netherlands. The English crowdfunded translation became a no. 1 fiction publishing project on Kickstarter, and sold in over 30 countries. It was sponsored by Montblanc.
In order to create a magical (looking) publication and to have written fairy tales at least once, I also crowdfunded and self published ONE BILLION AND ONE DIRHAM – FINANCIAL FAIRY TALES – a collection of short financial fairy tales, based mostly on the world’s famous fairy tales, turned into a financial setting. It also became a no 1 fiction publishing project on Kickstarter, selling in nearly 25 countries.
