The pressure is building, and an outlet must be found. VENT is a
collection of stories set against one of the most pivotal backdrops
in our lives: high school graduation. The characters in this
assemblage of short fiction are as varied as the young men and
women whose footsteps echo down the corridors of America's schools.
Yet there is unity, too. Unity of place. Unity of angst. Unity of
hope. VENT captures the turbulent final year of high school with
genuine warmth and humor as the protagonists search for excitement,
acceptance, and above all else, healthy release. Pressure can be
deadly. And if they don't want to explode, each must learn to vent.

My books are modern cloak- and dagger adventures really.
Although considering on-going sensitive events, setting them up in
North-Korea at the start was probably not such a good idea.
Still, as a potter I favour Korean ceramics above all.
So I write about a French-Korean heroine that sets out with the
idea to save her country from becoming a major battlefield. Things
go wrong and she is imprisoned for espionage. Unable to confess to
her true actions, she keeps quiet and survives hell until, at the
end of the first chapter, she's rescued by British marines.
They still do sail the world, don't they?
Throughout the book the pace is fast with many twists and turns,
while I write about places I visited and characters I would like to
have met (though not the villains) with events that tend to blow up
in one's face due to accidental twists of words or a mere
hesitation. To my own surprise I am on my fourth book already with
the hard core of the main characters still with me, having fun
daily.
Hope you will too.
