My new and twelfth book is called ‘My Destiny’, as you can see. Inspiration didn’t stop and so the writing goes on. Another book with 50 new poems. Maybe you aren’t much surprised anymore on how I keep doing that, but honestly, I still am. I keep seeing it as a blessing from God, to still be able to write down so many different and good stories. When I realized that I had written a few books, I’m now talking about those first three. Well, I started to have a wish of writing ten books, but ...

After ten comes eleven and that is just what this new book is, my eleventh book ‘Lessons In Life’. Still gathering lots of inspiration in my head and so yes, sometimes I write down those new pieces. These new pieces lead to new poems, which still make very happy. As much as I am still very much surprised on how I do it. I can now see it as a great gift from God, as I always had this believe in the back of my head. No need for me anymore to ask myself, will I still be able to write a new bo...

As I had mentioned before in my sixth book, I had already started my number 7. Writing becomes quite a habit, which I like very much of course. This seventh book feels rather fresh; many new ideas came up in my head. The poems are generally on handling lots of stuff. It’s not particularly soft like the fifth book, Never Give Up. On the other hand, it’s not as fierce and heavy as number 6, Stay Strong, was. It’s a unique collection of many repetitive poems—a style that I have improved a lot...

I have to say that I feel lucky being able to write such beautiful material. The magic is that when I start writing a new poem, it grows on me. The more I get into this poem, the easier it becomes. Thoughts start coming without even thinking about it. At least thats how it feels, and this feeling is just wonderful. God is a big inspiration to me, and I know that he believes in me, like I believe in him. Without God, this wouldve never been possible. Im very happy to be able to share this g...

Tenth Book - Champaign No Pain Ten books, can you imagine! For me, it’s more than a dream who becomes reality. I feel happy with this accomplishment and I certainly hope that you, my faithful readers, will also enjoy this newest book. In my opinion, every book is getting better, every time again. I can say, that no changes have been made to the arrangements of the poems, they are still written in my own familiar style. As always some new ideas came into my mind, some other perspectives, yo...

I cant believe it myself, but this book, Stay Strong, is already the sixth one that I wrote. Also, this time, its a combination of fifty poems in English, plus one in French at the end of the book. I guess I have to face it; I cant stop now. So keep on writing is the message. Ill go forward to the next book, which will be the seventh one, of course. Dont worry; Ive already started on that seventh book. I have the feeling that the poems in Stay Strong are a bit heavier with more fierce lang...

After writing and publishing 5 books in the last 5 years, not mentioning the writing of previous 4 ones over several decades, one starts to believe that it’s going well. In fact, it’s certainly not that I need to complain, even though I must admit for this ninth book, ideas didn’t pop-up just like it was happening before. However, this writing is in my blood and almost every day pieces have been submitted to my papers lying on my desk. Going over these short pieces adds up to a certain sum...

Ive always thought that Hold On would be my last book. Certainly after a vicious attack in 2008 that destroyed my life for many years. The writing was difficult, I couldnt concentrate, didnt do much writing for several years, due to these injuries and the struggle with my health. So I started to publish my writings in small and cheap little poetry books and that was the positive side of it. After more than 7 years the doctor finally found a good medicine and it felt like coming alive again...

Number three Inside Me is looking at you, it comes as no surprise to me. Im glad to be able to show you more of my stuff, hope youll like this little book as well.I still use the same old patterns, same way of writing. I feel good with the arrangements of my poems, only the ideas are new, everytime again of course. Its understandable that my work becomes recognizable, sometimes I try to make something different.Still I can feel that when I read a poem that Ive written, it g...

The writing went on for many years, of some I was very pleased and I also accepted that not every poem that I wrote could be a good as the other.Once in awhile an incident or a happy event or a drama give me inspiration, or something that happened to myself or that I’ve seen or heard. Writing a poem sometimes give me the strength to go on, to be able to express myself in these little pieces.People told me, you’ve got to do something with those poems, publish them they said....

For anyone interested in the history and effects of the introduction of so-called “Modern Mathematics” (or “Mathématique Moderne,” or “New Mathematics,” etc.) this book, by Dirk De Bock and Geert Vanpaemel, is essential reading. The two authors are experienced and highly qualified Belgian scholars and the book looks carefully at events relating to school mathematics for the period from the end of World War II to 2010. Initially the book focuses on events which helped to define the modern m...

The international New Math developments between about 1950 through 1980, are regarded by many mathematics educators and education historians as the most historically important development in curricula of the twentieth century. It attracted the attention of local and international politicians, of teachers, and of parents, and influenced the teaching and learning of mathematics at all levels—kindergarten to college graduate—in many nations. After garnering much initial support it began to at...
