Why I am passionate about writing
I like to write. I love words and language. Professionally, I regularly hold the pen to describe my ideas about food and agriculture. Sometimes these are hard facts and data, but there are also many emotions and myths in the food debate. We cannot avoid them in the public debate.
The advantage of writing is that there is no rush. You have the time to weigh words. No one interrupts your writing process. That advantage was also a huge asset when I put my own running story on paper. I am proud of my path as a runner, but it was certainly not a bed of roses.
Behind every book there is a story, a writing process with many insights. Interested in a lecture about one of my books? Let me know.
