European leaders rush to express their support to Ukraine, but actions speak louder than words: will Europe finally support Ukraine to win this war without restrictions?
Zelenskyy today showed what real strength looks like - itโ€˜s time for Europe to follow suit!
We cannot rely on the US anymore.

Just watched โ€šthe War of the Rohirrimโ€˜ and listening to the Lord of the Rings theme song in the cinema was absolutely brilliant - just like the rest of the movie. Highly recommend watching it!

Not to brag, but instead of sending my fully finished high fantasy manuscript to literary agents, I started working on the sequel.
40k words later, my manuscript is gathering dust, and my protagonist finds himself in deep trouble - just like my career.

Sunday. 3 pm. A rainy pitch. Fried sausages. Season-appropriate mulled wine. Lower-league football. This is all I need.

As weโ€˜re slowly moving into the trashy Christmas movie territory, hereโ€™s a thought: a Christmas romance written and directed by Christopher Nolan.

What could possibly go wrong?

Years ago, I wrote a dystopian mystery-novella in which a sentient robot falls in love with a stripping cow.

I once mentioned its title during a job interview and one of the interviewers immediately began reading the online sample. I thought he was decently intrigued.

They never called me back.

Writing: every time I set an ambitious writing goal, I fail.

Once I simply sit down and type away, I somehow produce more words than I can count.

My key takeaway: my writing habits are consistently inconsistent, yet my crafting patterns are delightfully predictable.

Football: the German national team played 60 dull minutes against Hungary until Kai Havertz steps on the pitch. 2 minutes later the team enjoys its best sequence as Havertz hits the post with his first action - coincidence?
