Publications
Publishing is not that easy.
Sometimes you have to be lucky, like I was when I was allowed to make a short documentary for German TV [Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen] during my first degree although I was only in my second year at Bochum's university.
Sometimes you have to make a name for yourself in a particular field, which fortunately I also managed to do on occasion.
Then you get asked if you could publish something.
Sometimes you just keep hitting a brick wall, and your manuscripts end up lying in the desk drawers of editors, literary agents and publishers for years.
The publications referred to on the following pages are mainly print media, which can be easily assigned to the four countries depending on their place of publication. In recent years, a whole series of my websites have also appeared on the internet. My web agency gesti-design provides information about this.
