Tamara Geraeds was born in 1981.
When she was 6 years old, she wrote her first poem, which basically translates as:

A hug for you and a hug for me
and that’s how life should be

She started writing books at the age of 15 and her first book was published in 2012. After 6 books in Dutch she decided to write a young adult fantasy series in English: Cards of Death.

Tamara’s bibliography consists of books for children, young adults and adults, and can be placed under fantasy and thrillers.
Besides writing she runs her own business, in which she teaches English, Dutch and writing, (re)writes texts and edits books.

And mostly - not always! - your characters do whatever you tell them to do. You can get lost in stories you like best and there's never a dull moment. You're creating lives and that's awesome.(less)

Taking a shower can help, as well as driving around (in the countryside), preferably let someone else drive.
It also helps to explain to someone else at which point you got stuck. Tell them what has happened in the story so far. Sometimes the idea just comes to you then, but it can also help if someone suggests things. Sometimes they will come up with something you can use, and sometimes they say things that give you ideas. :-)
And if everything above fails... just let it rest for a while. Maybe even start writing something else and pick it up again after a couple of days.(less)

"4,5 ster!

Wat een goed boek! Ik heb dit boek in een keer uitgelezen en ook niet meer neer kunnen leggen. Naarmate ik verder kwam in het boek hoe sneller ik het uit wilde hebben om er achter te komen hoe het allemaal zat. De schrijfstijl is heel fijn " Read more of this review »
