When not busy either with his family, or working nights as an internal medicine doctor in hospitals on islands, the author is trying to finish the two remaining stories of the CORRELATIONS TRILOGY.

Should there ever be enough time and space, he would get one more cat besides Maša. A male Russian Blue. He would be named Vladimir Vladimirovich (VV). As Maša is a lady, VV would need to be castrated.

They initially only asked for the opening chapters (which were written...) so I send them in. Well, and then they sent me an e-mail that they want to see the whole story ... my writer's block was cured very quickly ... I managed to send in a "complete" manuscript ... well did not win anything ;-) ... but it surely was a very good CURE for writer's block....(less)

“Courage is knowing it might hurt and doing it anyway. Stupidity is the same. That's why life is hard.”
Jeremy Goldberg, It’ll Be Okay, And You Will Be Too.

“I think that we all know what evil is. We have a sense of what's evil, and certainly killing innocent people is evil. We're less sure about what is good. There's sort of good, good enough, could be better - but absolute good is a little harder to define.”
Madeleine K. Albright

“Who will suffer the most from it? The people. Who doesn’t want it the most? The people! Who can stop it? The people. But are there those people among you? [23.2.2022 in Russian on the eve of the invasion of Ukraine by Russia]”
Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy

“We really did have everything, didn't we? I mean, if you think about it.”
Dr. Mindy Randall (Leonardo DiCaprio)

“Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.”
Albert Einstein
