I’m Valérie and I’m 21 years old.
I live in Belgium and I love writing poems, stories and songs. I also love acting, I’ve been taking drama lessons since I was 13 years old.
I’ve got a boyfriend, Yves, who I love immensely. He gives me hope and makes my dreams come true. I don’t know what I’d do without him.
I also read a lot of books. My favorite writers are Santa Montefiore, William Shakespeare, Jane Austen and Charlotte Brontë. These writers are one of the reasons why I started writing stories. I’ve posted one of my stories in ‘episodes’ (after I translated it in English-All of my stories are written in Dutch). I hope you will like it, and post comments.
In my poems and my stories I want to express my feelings. Whenever something bad happens I’ll write something about it to get it off my chest.
It helps me, and if I can ‘entertain’ you with it, that’s good right?

Hi Valerie,
Thank you for noticing my blog. It’s my … literary gym, my exercise room, it is where I train for … the real writing… my novel (almost done finally)
I salute your instincts… yes, the best way to get rid of your problems is to put them on paper, honestly, and you are doing it. Bravo.
I like a lot what I have red from you so far.
Romain Gary, the only author ever to collect 2 Goncourt Prizes said that all you need to become a writer is indignation. I would ad… or a very strong emotion provoked by events not under your control.
Again, thank you for liking my… stuff. And since you are in Belgium , whenever you have the time, please say hello from me to the little cafe/bars Place du Sablon, Porte de Namur, and >>> “au vieux Bruxelles” and tel them that I miss hearing a taxi driver asking “Allez, Monsieur, ou vas tu?” with that Brusseler accent that cannot be imitated . Ma jeunesse.
I hope top read much more from you
Pierre

Hi,
Well, if it’s your gym, your work-out is a very good one! 🙂
Oh you’re writing a novel! May I ask about what? 😀
Well, thank you, that’s very nice to hear 🙂
The two of you are right, I seem only to be able to write something good
when something special or horrible happened 🙂
You’re welcome, and thank you for liking what I write too!
Oh I will, I don’t spend that much time in Brussels though, more in Leuven because I go to college there 🙂
You might if you come visit my blog sometimes, and I will certainly read more from you,
I’m very curious about your novel!
I’m writing one too but it’s not that good I think, it’s a kind of mix of poems and prose 🙂
