Own book projects

Between 2022 and 2025, I published four books – each one exploring universal themes that resonate with us all: hope, memory, loss, and the quiet strength it takes to keep moving forward.

1. Flügelschläge des Lebens (Wingbeats of Life, 2022)
This was the beginning of my journey as an author – a collection of short stories capturing life’s emotional highs and lows. From quiet, fleeting moments to life-altering turning points, these stories reflect the full spectrum of human experience: intense, unexpected, and deeply felt.

2. Flügelschläge der Erinnerung (Wingbeats of Memory, 2023)
The second book in the “Wingbeats” series dives into the power of memory – how it shapes us, defines our self-image, and stays with us throughout our lives. Each story asks: what happens when we see our past through new eyes? Which moments and people leave lasting, unerasable marks?

3. Interred Secrets (2023)
My third book is less poetic, but more raw and personal. Interred Secrets tells the first part of my father's story – a man who faced deep trauma as a child. Long-buried family secrets slowly come to light: abuse, suicidal thoughts, and a haunting fear that lingered across generations. At its core, this is a story about survival – about facing darkness, finding inner strength, and learning to keep going despite everything.

4. Flügelschläge der Hoffnung (Wingbeats of Hope, 2024)
This fourth collection returns to the short story format, this time with a focus on hope – the quiet force that carries us through our darkest hours. It’s also about courage and the ability to rediscover ourselves again and again. Many of these stories were inspired by my journey through Australia, where vast landscapes and unforgettable encounters offered me fresh perspective.

5. Wingbeats of Happiness (2025)
This is the English-language collection of 27 selected stories from all my previous works. These tales bring together the core themes that run through my writing – hope, memory, hardship, and the unshakable will to keep going. With this book, I invite readers around the world to experience the emotional depth and quiet resilience that define my storytelling.
