Hey,
I just read on your space that you write poems…do you write english or german poems? And -if I may ask you- what kind of poems? I’m really interested in literature, especially poems…

Have a nice day,
Charcoal

Hello Charcoal,

oh, how to describe my poems?
Recently I haven't written much (or to tell the truth, not any at all). My former poems had to do with some emotional bits, or whatever came into my mind.
Most of them (nearly all) are in German. Two or three in English. Unfortunately I have lost most of them.

I had one in the Post last year though

I should read more poems again, then I might start writing myself again

How about you? Do you write poems or stories or the like as well?

Hope to read you soon

Tina

Hey,

well, I write a lot, poems, sketches, short stories -but everything in German. Sometimes I'm able to supplement my pocket money with writing for some papers or mostly with "Gigs" [Poetry-Slam or some Culture-Programs we got here..]
I can't write poems in english, because I'm still learning the language, and it's already tough enough for me to write some simple letters like this.
But maybe in a few years I will be able...*still hoping* [I just started to read some English Books (not just the school-literature), maybe this helps.]

Is it possible to read some of your german poems?

I read the english poem you sent me and i really like it...it...(can't find a good english word I know...)it "sounds" exactly like the feeling you discribe (I hope I did make any sense)...


What are your favourite poems?

Have a nice sunny (How's it in Düsseldorf?) day

Hello Charcoal,

where are my poems? Oh, still on some cd - I wait for the day I release my homepage again, then I will put them there.

I would love to read some of your works as well (a bit nosy, I know)

My English isn't as good as it used to be. I don't have the opportunity to speak it, so I lost contact to colloquial English while at the same time I was busy learning Business English - which is complete useless at my new job (I only need German + the medical language there).

Reading English books is a good idea to learn and practise the language

Where in Germany do you live?

The wheather was quite okay today, some rainy spell in the morning, wheather forecast just said the next days will be quite nice, before the autumn really "hits" us.

Have a nice evening

Tina

Hi Ho.

Of course you can read some of my works, you're welcome. [But they aren't online, I don't know if it's allowed to sent german texts here...Don't think so..] (Email or kind of messenger?)

What's your new job?

I come from Tübingen. I think you know where it is..near Stuttgart.

Have a nice evening

Charcoal

Tübingen does have a well known university, doesn't it?

you can write to matodemi1atwebdotde

then I can send you my "proper" email addy

see you tomorrow (or some time till thursday, because I'll be quite busy until then)

oh - my new job is being in the writing pool in the health centre of our city administration, started there last monday, part time, after years of being on and off jobs...

Yes, we have a nice university here. I'll write tomorrow, too tired now. (Long day..)

Good night,

Charcoal
