Willem Spelten

Willem Spelten, born in 1979, has worked as a journalist and press spokesman in Stuttgart, Vienna and Tokyo for the past 25 years. He and his wife are not only united by their love for their wonderful twin sons, but also by an interest in Asia that has grown over many years. The family currently lives in Luxembourg, where the author prefers to work on his texts during the long nights from Friday to Monday. Willem has won awards in various journalism and writing competitions and has written successful screenplays for computer games as well as tear-jerking speeches and heart-rending song lyrics. He likes Jonathan Franzen, Haruki Murakami and pepperoni pizza. Reading his books gives you the feeling of sitting down with a friend and listening to their experiences. Profound, full of facts and always with a twinkle in his eye.
