About me
Hi, I’m Britt, a twenty-something from the Netherlands—and obsessed with all things speculative fiction (fantasy, sci-fi, dystopian, paranormal, etc.) Romance and I can often be found drifting off into fictional worlds.
Stories are the love of my life, and I’ve been reading books and watching movies & series ever since I can remember. I have been writing for many years and have spent many of them researching the publishing and self-publishing industry.
I’m planning on bundling all of this knowledge into content in the hopes of helping other passionate and ambitious people along their storytelling journey and giving some tips along the way.
I published my first book, Battle Heat, in early 2022. It’s a post-apocalyptic (spicy) romance book set in the army, and the second book is coming up next! I’ve also been working on a High Fantasy series since 2016 (or something, because the story has changed tremendously), and the first book in this series will also be published somewhere in the next couple of years.
get to know me
Here are some fun facts…
- I love science. Especially chemistry, which resulted in me sincerely aspiring to become an astronaut for many years.
- The two days I went to BookCon in 2019 made me realize that I was meant to work with and around stories.
- Scotland is my favorite country (so far), and I would absolutely love to live there one day.
- I have my favorite quote tattooed on my arm, and it is:
“Don’t tell me the sky’s the limit when there are footprints on the Moon.”
