W. Hocares has been my writer's name already 6 or 7 years, so i have became very used to it. And so are
the people whom I have been working together in a field of
literature.
I've been writing from the age of 15, so at the moment I have seventeen years (15 of them I want to forget) of experience. I started writing with science fiction and poetry, but lately my main topics has been connected with man's thoughts. I like to put my characters to some usual situation, but with a little abnormal twist it's quite fun to create reactions for the people around.
Almost two years ago I published my first book - a collection of short stories. At the moment I am working with the second one and also with my first two novels. I am going to publish them in next spring and hoping to get back all the money I spent for it. Not that money is the main goal of mine, but a man have to eat.
But... Unfortunately my mother tongue is not English, so all my stories come out in Estonian. I've been trying to translate some of stories to English and published them on my blog, that you may find on the following address: http://
thistimeinmybadenglish.blogspot.com/ . My English is far from perfect, but I'm trying to improve it daily. So - if anyone has a interest, visit the site and let me know what you think. You may do it here, also you may leave comments on that site for me to know what do you think about my stories.
However, because of my lack of English it has been quite hard to keep the correct meaning and style while translating. But I did my best.
For the ending of my first text here under that user (can't log in, but you may find it by searching for W. Hocares or user LordOfMagi) I think it would be good to let everybody know, what will be the next topics here.
Though it's so easy to write about Estonian popular authors, I prefer to look for some more interesting and promising writers. So the next reviews will take me to Estonian young authors. First one will be Malcolm Lincoln. And later I take a look to some amateur literature sites and explain why are they good and why bad.
But for now... See ya.
