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.
She’s been playing badminton for over 20 years and met the love of her life Frans on the court. She loves going out for dinner, watching movie

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 …moreChange scenery, so for instance I move to the couch or to a lunchroom. Sometimes it helps to write (yes, with a pen) instead of type. 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)

Wat een heerlijk boek. Spannend met een vleugje paranormaal.

Op zich wel een goed verhaal en stukken beter dan het vorige boek, maar het duurde ontzettend lang voordat ze de arena in gingen. En dat was, zoals verwacht, het beste stuk.
Van mij mag ze echt stoppen met deze serie.
