Grandma Luise's Schoppala - The one and only
SchoppalaEver since my friend Kristin started to sell my book at her coffee bar, I get lovely feedback. Almost on a daily basis. For instance from a little girl who, encouraged by her dad, pointed out how much she liked the cheese cake they baked, and a young guy, who claimed (with a wink) that [...]
Burnt & Strange - or, How to get a signed copy of my book
delicious daysThese days I especially have a wish for one little skill: a very readable, pleasing to the eye and charming handwriting.

Still proofreading...
Still reading...From now on I am much, much, much more understanding, when it comes to typos.
Sunshine and happiness with 216 pages
ImpressionsYes I’m still alive, thank you for asking. The reason for the sudden quietness around here were my fantastic skills to juggle coordinate the last deadlines for my book with a rather spontaneously arranged trip to Paris.

My book needs a cover...
CoverTake a big bowl of your personal style and ideas, throw in a few cups of knowledge from the publishing pros and add a pinch of common sense… sounds simple enough?
Everything falls into place - The Book Deal
ContractsIf somebody would have told me, that the spontaneous idea of setting up a food blog back in 2005 would change my life in so many ways, I would have laughed it off and called him or her nuts. Heck, I didn’t even know, if I’d still be blogging after a few months. But to my own surprise …
